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 the 52-week real-world efficacy and safety outcomes of brolucizumab therapy for neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) in Indian eyes. Patients and Methods: A retrospective, multicentre chart analysis of 82 eyes of 82 patients with nAMD (switch therapy: 65 eyes; treatment-naïve: 17 eyes) with 52-week follow-up data was performed. Pro-re-nata re-treatment was offered based on visual and tomographic criteria. Changes in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraretinal fluid (IRF), subretinal fluid (SRF), central-subfield thickness (CST), and pigment epithelial detachment (PED) were the key outcome measures, coupled with the safety profile. Results: The mean age of the study population was 67.65 (±10.67) years, with 57 male patients (69.5%). The study's mean number of injections was 4.8 (± 0.77). After brolucizumab therapy, the BCVA improved significantly at weeks 4 ( Conclusion: The 52-week BRAILLE study demonstrates that brolucizumab is effective and safe in nAMD eyes in a real-world setting. Brolucizumab treatment can reduce the therapeutic burden in patients with nAMD due to its rapid, sustained efficacy and favourable safety profile.
