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

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) often causes a wide range of lesions in the peripheral retina, which can be undetected when using a traditional fundus camera. Widefield (WF) and Ultra-Widefield (UWF) technologies aim to significantly expand the photographable retinal field. We conducted a geometrical analysis to assess the field of view (FOV) of WF and UWF imaging, comparing it to the angular extension of the retina. For this task, we shot WF images using the Zeiss Clarus 500 fundus camera (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). Approximating the ocular bulb to an ideal sphere, the angular extension of the theoretically photographable retinal surface was 242 degrees. Performing one shot, centered on the macula, it was possible to photograph a retinal surface of ~570 mm
