A smartphone based method for mouse fundus imaging.
Review in Experimental eye research, 2021. 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
Noninvasive in vivo imaging of the mouse retina is essential for eye research. However, imaging the mouse fundus is challenging due to its small size and requires specialized equipment, maintenance, and training. These issues hinder the routine evaluation of the mouse retina. In this study, we developed a noncontact imaging system consisting of a smartphone, a 90D condensing lens, a homemade light diaphragm, a tripod, and a Bluetooth remote. With minimal training, examiners were able to capture fundus images from the mouse retina. We also found that fundus images captured using our system from wild type mice, mice with laser-induced retinal injury, and a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa showed a quality similar to those captured using a commercial fundus camera. These images enabled us to identify normal structures and pathological changes in the mouse retina. Additionally, fluorescein angiography was possible with the smartphone system. We believe that the smartphone imaging system is low cost, simple, accessible, easy to operate, and suitable for the routine screening and examination of the mouse eye.
