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

purposeTo investigate retinal sensitivity in eyes with angioid streaks (AS).

methodsThis study was a retrospective observational case series. A total of 13 eyes from 9 patients with AS underwent ophthalmologic examination, including fundus autofluorescence (FAF), spectral domain optical tomography (SD-OCT), and microperimetry. Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) atrophy was assessed using FAF. Outer retinal atrophy, more specifically, disruption of the ellipsoid zone, was evaluated using SD-OCT images. The association between retinal sensitivity, RPE atrophy or outer retinal atrophy, and patient demographic characteristics or ophthalmologic findings were investigated.

resultsThe mean area of outer retinal atrophy was 14.5 ± 12.9 mm

conclusionsIn eyes with AS, especially in those with RPD, large areas of outer retinal atrophy and RPE atrophy were observed, and the retinal sensitivity in the areas was correspondingly decreased.
