Clinical manifestations of cuticular drusen in Korean patients.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Cuticular drusen show some similarities to and differences from soft drusen in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and might thus be a unique AMD subtype. Previous studies on cuticular drusen were performed mainly in white ethnic groups, but AMD shows ethnic differences. We investigated clinical manifestations of cuticular drusen in Korean patients to evaluate possible ethnic differences. Clinical records of Korean patients with cuticular drusen were retrospectively reviewed. Fundus distribution pattern, imaging features, and presence of large drusen, drusenoid pigment epithelial detachment (PED), and macular complications, including geographic atrophy (GA), choroidal neovascularization (CNV), and acquired vitelliform lesion (AVL), were assessed via multimodal imaging in 162 eyes with cuticular drusen (n = 81 patients; 67 females; mean age: 66.6 ± 9.1 years). Diffuse distribution was found in 61.7% and peripapillary involvement in 75.3% of eyes. Large drusen, drusenoid PED, GA, CNV, and AVL were observed in 59.3%, 26.5%, 18.5%, 3.7%, and 1.2% of eyes, respectively. The macular complication prevalence was similar between patients ≤ 60 and those > 60 years old. In Korean patients, cuticular drusen were less frequently associated with macular complications than in white patients, and the proportion of macular complications differed significantly, with AVL representing an uncommon complication.
