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

First described by Gaucher and associates in 2008 in eyes with high myopia, dome-shaped maculopathy (DSM) is an anterior convex protrusion of the macula towards the vitreous cavity observable on OCT. This seems to be related to a localized scleral thickness, which might be the result of regional variation in the scleral bio-mechanical properties and the process of emmetropization causing asymmetric scleral growth. The presence of DSM can be associated with an increased risk of complications. The clinical spectrum ranges from being asymptomatic to metamorphopsia and mild-to-moderate gradual visual loss over years. Visual impairment in DSM results from retinal pigment epithelial changes, sub-foveal serous detachment, retinoschisis and myopic choroidal neovascularization. In this review, we compile and review the available information on the pathophysiology, nomenclature, classification, clinical features including imaging, differential diagnosis, complications associated with DSM and the gaps in our understanding of this entity thus far.
