Ranibizumab port delivery system in neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
Review in Therapeutic advances in ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ranibizumab has proven its efficacy in various retinal diseases and particularly in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). The number of injections and the frequent follow-up visits has been burdensome to patients particularly during the COVID era. Ranibizumab port delivery system (RPDS) seems to be a boon in prolonging the action of the drug without the need for frequent injections and follow-up visits. This review article highlights the dosage, adverse effects, and visual outcome associated with various trials of RPDS. For this article, we conducted a PubMed search and review of literature on nAMD, the incidence of AMD, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents, RPDS, phase-1 trial of RPDS, phase-2 (LADDER trial) of RPDS, phase-3 (ARCHWAY trial) of RPDS, PORTAL trial of RPDS, results of phase-1 trial of RPDS, results of phase-2 (LADDER) trial of RPDS, and results of phase-3 (ARCHWAY) trial of RPDS.
