Sensitivity and Specificity of Ultrawide-Field Fundus Photography for the Staging of Sickle Cell Retinopathy in Real-Life Practice at Varying Expertise Level.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeTo evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of ultrawide-field fundus photography (UWF-FP) for the detection and classification of sickle cell retinopathy (SCR) by ophthalmologists with varying degrees of expertise in retinal disease.
methodsPatients presenting with sickle cell disease (SCD) in the Créteil University Eye Clinic, having undergone UWF-FP and ultrawide-field fluorescein angiography (UWF-FA) on the same day, were retrospectively included. Eyes with previous retinal photocoagulation were excluded. SCR was graded independently by UWF-FP and UWF-FA using Goldberg classification by two ophthalmologists with varying expertise levels.
resultsSixty-six eyes of 33 patients were included in the study. The sensitivity of UWF-FP for the detection of proliferative SCR was 100%, (95% confidence interval [CI95%] 76.8-100) for the retinal specialist and 100% (CI95% 71.5-100) for the ophthalmology resident. The specificity of UWF-FP for the detection of proliferative SCR was 100% (CI95% 92.7-100) for the retinal specialist and 98.1% (CI95% 89.7-100) for the ophthalmology resident.
conclusionsUWF-FP is a valuable exam for proliferative SCR screening, with excellent sensitivity and specificity and a good inter-grader agreement for ophthalmologists with various degree of skills, and is easy to use in a real-life setting.
