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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesTo compare the clinical and optical coherence tomography (OCT) characteristics of autosomal dominant optic atrophy (ADOA) and normal tension glaucoma (NTG) in Chinese patients. SUBJECTS/

methodsTwenty-four unrelated patients with ADOA and 21 unrelated patients with NTG, younger than 30 years, were enrolled in this study. Data regarding the demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients were collected, and their peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) and macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) thicknesses were evaluated using OCT. Sequencing of genes associated with neuro-ophthalmic disorders was performed for all patients.

resultsThe average age at onset of the ADOA group (13.92 ± 10.73 years) was significantly younger than that of the NTG group (23.67 ± 4.98 years, P = 0.002). Best-corrected visual acuity was significantly poorer in the ADOA group (0.75 ± 0.32) than in the NTG group (0.16 ± 0.19, P < 0.001). The average peripapillary RNFL thickness and the RNFL thicknesses in the temporal upper, temporal lower, and nasal lower sectors were significantly thinner in the ADOA group than in the NTG group (all P < 0.05). Moreover, the macular GCC thickness of the ADOA group was significantly thinner than that of the NTG group (P < 0.001). Twenty-three OPA1 variants (11 novel OPA1 variants) and one OPA3 variant were detected in 24 patients with ADOA.

conclusionsOur study revealed a distinct difference between the patterns of RNFL and GCC loss in ADOA and NTG, which will help to differentiate ADOA from NTG in young patients. Additionally, this study expanded the genetic spectrum of ADOA.
