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

Background: Microperimetry is a novel technology to assess macular function. The aim of the study was to explore the global research status and trends in microperimetry. Methods: Documents related to microperimetry in ophthalmology from 1992 to 2022 were extracted from the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) database of the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC). Raw data were analyzed using the VOSviewer and CiteSpace software. Bibliometric parameters included annual publication quantity, countries, authors, journals, international cooperation, and keywords. Results: A total of 1,217 peer-reviewed documents were retrieved. Annual research output has increased significantly since 2005, especially since 2013. Holz F, Rubin G, and Guymer R contributed most to the number of articles published about microperimetry. Rubin G, Fitzke F, and Holz F, respectively, received the most citations for their study. The countries publishing most were the USA, Italy, and the UK, while the USA, the UK, and Germany received the most citation frequency. Univ Bonn, UCL, and Moorfields Eye Hosp were the top three productive institutions for microperimetry research in the world. The top three journals that publish articles about microperimetry were Retina-The Journal of Retinal and Vitreous Diseases, Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, and the American Journal of Ophthalmology. The top 10 common keywords included microperimetry, optical coherence tomography, eye, retinal sensitivity, macular degeneration, fundus autofluorescence, scanning laser ophthalmoscope, visual acuity, sensitivity, and degeneration. Keywords "optical coherence tomography angiography," "retinitis pigmentosa," and "internal limiting membrane" burst in the last 3 years. Conclusion: The bibliometric and knowledge graph analysis of research status and trends in microperimetry provided global researchers with valuable information to propose future cooperation and track cutting-edge progress.
