Effect of Background Brightness on Preferred Retinal Loci in Patients With Macular Disease.
Article in Translational vision science & technology, 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
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of background brightness on the preferred retinal locus (PRL) in patients with macular disease. Methods: The study included 27 eyes (27 patients) with macular disease. Microperimetry (MP) was performed to evaluate the PRL and retinal sensitivity (RS) at 10 cd/m Results: The PRLs under different brightness levels differed significantly ( Conclusions: In patients with macular disease, PRLs can change depending on the surrounding brightness. It may be beneficial to evaluate PRLs under brighter background conditions (e.g., in ambient light) when performing visual rehabilitation for these patients. Translational Relevance: This study provides important information for visual rehabilitation of patients with macular disease.
