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
purposeWe studied the conditions under which c-waves of the electroretinogram (ERG), that represent retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) function, were detectable using an alternating current (AC) amplifier and whether the c-wave recorded using an AC amplifier was useful for evaluating RPE function.
methodsWe recorded ERG responses in rats to 5 s stimuli under the conditions in which the low-cut frequency and the stimulus luminance were varied. In addition, changes in ERGs were studied after intravenous injection of sodium iodate (SI) to induce RPE degeneration.
resultsThe c-wave was detected clearly when the frequency of the low-cut filter was set at 0.01 Hz and light stimulus luminances were ≥ - 1.0 log cd/m
conclusionsThe c-wave was easily detectable using an AC amplifier with the low-cut filter set at 0.01 Hz. Using the AC amplifier may allow easier c-wave recording, compared with the conventional use of a direct current (DC) amplifier, and could be useful for evaluating RPE function.
