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

A 44-year-old woman presented with decreased vision in both eyes. The retina in both eyes had drusen distributed along vascular arcades, central macula and in peripapillary region. Macula had pigmented scarring and exudation. Fundus autofluorescence showed drusen. Optical coherence tomography showed drusen, subretinal and intraretinal fluid. Fundus fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography showed drusen, retinal pigment epithelial atrophy and vascular network. Younger age at presentation, bilateral symmetry, typical distribution of drusen along the arcades in a radiating pattern, peripapillary involvement, scarring and atrophy at macula were suggestive of doyne honeycomb retinal dystrophy. The reduced vision was due to macular atrophy and an active choroidal neovascular membrane. The patient was treated with antivascular endothelial growth factor injections for choroidal neovascular membrane. Our case highlights the importance of pattern recognition and multimodal imaging for diagnosing the type of macular dystrophy as doyne honeycomb retinal dystrophy, while simultaneously managing choroidal neovascular membrane.
