Treatment and Outcomes in Nutritional Optic Neuropathy.
Review in Current treatment options in neurology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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.
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
purpose of reviewNutritional optic neuropathy is a potential cause of severe visual loss; however, appropriate and timely management can result in excellent visual outcomes. The purpose of this review is to outline our current understanding of the treatment and outcomes for nutritional optic neuropathy. RECENT
findingsCurrent understanding of nutritional optic neuropathy has been greatly aided by some well-reported and investigated epidemics of the condition, most notably the Cuban epidemic optic neuropathy of the early 1990s. More recently, there is an emerging literature surrounding nutritional deficiencies that can occur in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery. There also continues to be a stream of case reports in the literature that add to our understanding. Nutritional optic neuropathy has a great deal of overlap with toxic optic neuropathies and hereditary optic neuropathies and should not be thought of in isolation from these conditions. The mainstay of treatment for nutritional optic neuropathy involves identifying and replacing deficient nutrients as well as identifying and eliminating contributory toxins. It is also important to identify contributory genetic factors and to consider the broader social, economic and societal factors which may contribute.
