1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Macular telangiectasia type 2 (Mac Tel 2) is a bilateral disease of unknown cause with characteristic changes of the retinal vasculature. To the best of our knowledge, we could not find any reported cases of Mac Tel 2 with retinal arterial macroaneurysm (RAM). Our aim is to report a case of Mac Tel 2 with RAM.
