Abnormal stereopsis and reduced retinal sensitivity in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeThe aim of the study was to evaluate retinal sensitivity and stereoacuity (SA) in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients.
methodsTwenty-six patients with RP were examined, mean age 36.4 ± 7.21 (SD) years old and best corrected visual acuity better than 0.15 logMAR. The control group (CG) included 25 healthy subjects matching the RP group by age and sex. Every patient and healthy control underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination: Titmus, Lang, TNO stereotests and microperimetry (MP-1) (Nidek Technologies). Results were subjected to factor analysis using Varimax rotation, and p values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
resultsWith the Titmus stereotest, the mean SA was 136.52 ± 26.5 (SD) arcsec in the RP group and 67.2 ± 11.5 (SD) in CG; Lang SA was 391.39 ± 53.72 (SD) in RP group and 1150 ± 33.4 (SD) in CG; and TNO SA was 69.3 ± 14.39 (SD) in the RP group and 15.97 ± 3.7 (SD) in CG. Factor analysis showed significant correlation between visual acuity and SA (p = 0.0001) in RP group. MP-1 demonstrated that in RP patients, inter-ocular difference in retinal sensitivity and fixation stability was related to anomalous stereopsis (p values < 0.05).
conclusionProgressive RP degeneration in the cone system could determine a significant impairment in the binocular vision due to anomalous inter-ocular retinal sensitivity and incomplete Panum's area utilization, causing an incongruent retinal localization. These findings suggest a possible reason why RP patients with a central retinal involvement, even if minimal, perceive a damaged stereoscopic perception that produces a severe disability.
