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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate whether inherent sociodemographic parameters, lifestyle features, as well as medical data may be potential risk factors for the presence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

methodsParticipants in our study were 114 patients with AMD, 63 males and 51 females, and 100 control subjects without any ocular disease. Demographic data, lifestyle data, medical history, and comorbidities were recorded and analyzed as potential risk factors for the presence of AMD.

resultsThere was no statistically significant difference between patients and controls regarding age, gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, walking, exercise, presence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, myoskeletal problems, migraine, and cancer. Marital status, higher educational level, cardiovascular disorders, and thyroidopathy were found to be significantly associated with AMD.

conclusionsApart from already reported risk factors for AMD, thyroidopathy was associated with AMD.
