Eye, head, and gaze contributions to smooth pursuit in macular degeneration.
Article in Journal of neurophysiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Macular degeneration (MD) often leads to the loss of the fovea and surrounding central visual field. This type of visual loss is very common and can present particular challenges for oculomotor tasks that may rely on the fovea. For certain tasks, individuals develop a new, eccentric fixational locus. Our previous work has shown that smooth pursuit is impaired in MD. However, extent of retinal lesion size and eccentricity of fixation do not directly contribute to changes in smooth pursuit gain. Oculomotor limitations due to eccentric eye position in the orbit may be another culprit. Here we test the hypothesis that deficits in smooth pursuit in MD would be reduced under head-unrestrained conditions. To that end, we examined eye, head, and gaze movements in eight individuals with MD and seven age-matched controls in response to a step-ramp pursuit stimulus. We found that despite variability across participants, both groups had similar smooth pursuit head movements (
