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

purposeTo report retinal function findings on the choroidal nevus.

methodsProspective descriptive case series of 7 patients (

resultsBCVA was 20/25 (0.1 logMAR) or better in all 7 eyes. Microperimetry showed central stable fixation on all eyes, with mean ± SE sensitivity threshold significantly decreased on retinal areas overlaying the lesions (µP1): 21.8 ± 0.6 dB versus 25.2 ± 0.9 dB on nonaffected retinal areas (

conclusionOur results indicate that choroidal nevi may cause significant retinal sensitivity impairment, as shown by microperimetry, but preserved mfERG response indicates that the retinal function may be only partially impaired.
