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

Purpose: To report on a patient with Stargardt disease (STGD1) and with an intronic mutation in the Patients and Methods: A 69-year-old female patient presented to the clinic complaining of progressive vision loss. The ophthalmic evaluation was remarkable for a best corrected visual acuity of counting fingers at 5' in the right eye and 3' in the left eye. Imaging revealed deep extensive atrophy of the central macula, epithelial pigment hyperplasia, and other areas of multifocal atrophy in the right eye. Furthermore, fundus autofluorescence imaging of the macula showed central hypoautofluorescence with bilateral expansion to the periphery in both eyes. A full-field electroretinogram showed a normal rod response, with decreased cone response, bilaterally. Genetic testing was positive for a homozygous intronic mutation in the Conclusions and Importance: Patients with STGD1 due to presumed mild or moderate mutations in the
