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

Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) express the photopigment melanopsin, imparting to themselves the ability to respond to light in the absence of input from rod or cone photoreceptors. Since their discovery ipRGCs have been found to play a significant role in non-image-forming aspects of vision, including circadian photoentrainment, neuroendocrine regulation, and pupillary control. In the past decade it has become increasingly clear that some ipRGCs also contribute directly to pattern-forming vision, the ability to discriminate shapes and objects. However, the degree to which melanopsin-mediated phototransduction, versus that of rods and cones, contributes to this function is still largely unknown. Earlier attempts to quantify this contribution have relied on genetic knockout models that target key phototransductive proteins in rod and cone photoreceptors, ideally to isolate melanopsin-mediated responses. In this study we used the Gnat1
