[oregis-The German ophthalmological registry].
Article in Die Ophthalmologie, 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
backgroundMedical registries have shown their potential for medical research in different areas of healthcare in the past. The United States of America uses the well-known national ophthalmology registry Intelligent Research in Sight (IRIS®), on the basis of which insights into the ophthalmological care situation in the USA can be gained. Comparable projects do not currently exist in Germany. The oregis is the first disease-independent registry to collect comprehensive data in the field of ophthalmology in Germany for the purpose of healthcare research.
methodsThe oregis collects anonymized clinical patient information from all subfields of ophthalmology and makes it available for research purposes. Participating centers read their data into the registry free of charge and preferably in an automated fashion. Currently, the oregis parameter list contains about 600 parameters, of which about 100 are used in the current pilot phase.
resultsSince its initiation, the German ophthalmological registry oregis has compiled data on more than 1.75 million physician visits for more than 400,000 patients from German ophthalmologic centers. As of late 2022, more than 2.8 million visual acuity measurements and an equal number of intraocular pressure measurements have been recorded. DISCUSSION: The aim of the oregis project is to establish a nationwide ophthalmology databank that forms the basis for a learning healthcare system in the field of ophthalmology. With the help of continuous updating, oregis can also illustrate short-term innovations in ophthalmological care.
