Perspectives on the Home Monitoring of Macular Disease.
Article in Ophthalmology and therapy, 2023. 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
Recent advancements in imaging technology have led to increasing interest in home monitoring of macular disease. The prevalence of macular disease is projected to rise considerably over time, leading to a significant burden on hospital services for age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema. Home monitoring has the potential to augment conventional hospital assessment and so enable improved access to clinical care for low- and moderate-risk patients, while also allowing sensitive detection of early signs of disease that may require prompt intervention. Despite this, there are significant considerations before large-scale implementation could be possible. These are related to both the current availability of home monitoring technology and the logistical barriers to its widespread introduction. Access to home monitoring is also likely to be more challenging in lower-income communities and countries, with subsequent implications for health inequality that will need to be considered and addressed appropriately.
