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

Very poor (hand motion or worse) visual acuity at presentation is highly unusual in non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 151 consecutive non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy patients seen at our institution between July 2014 and April 2016 to evaluate the frequency and characteristics of patients with very poor visual acuity in non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy. Hand motion or worse visual acuity was documented in 17 patients (11%); all patients had at least one vascular risk factor and 14 (82%) had at least two vascular risk factors. Although severe vision loss at presentation does occur in non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy, an extensive workup should be obtained to rule out another cause, especially arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy.
