Potential value of color vision aids for varying degrees of color vision deficiency.
Article in Optics express, 2022. 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
Red-green color vision deficiency (CVD) is the most common single locus genetic disorder in humans, affecting approximately 8% of males and 0.4% of females [G. H. M. Waaler, Acta Ophthalmol.5, 309 (2009)10.1111/j.1755-3768.1927.tb01016.x]; however, only about 1/4 of CVD individuals are dichromats who rely on only two cone types for color vision. The remaining 3/4 are anomalous trichromats whose CVD is milder, being based on three cone types, and who still perform remarkably well on many color-based tasks. To illustrate this, we have developed an algorithm that computes the relative loss of color discrimination in red-green CVD individuals with varying degrees of deficiency and accurately simulates their color experience for color normal observers. The resulting simulation illustrates the large gap in color discrimination between dichromats and even the most severe anomalous trichromats, showing that, relative to dichromats, the majority of anomalous trichromats can function without aids for color vision deficiency.
