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

Macular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders that often severely threatens the bilateral central vision of the affected patient. While advances in molecular genetics have been instrumental in the understanding and diagnosis of these disorders, there remains significant phenotypical variation among patients within any particular subset of macular dystrophies. Electrophysiological testing remains a vital tool not only to characterize vision loss for differential diagnosis but also to understand the pathophysiology of these disorders and to monitor the treatment effect, potentially leading to therapeutic advances. This review summarizes the application of electrophysiological testing in macular dystrophies, including Stargardt disease, bestrophinopathies, X-linked retinoschisis, Sorsby fundus dystrophy, Doyne honeycomb retina dystrophy, autosomal dominant drusen, occult macular dystrophy, North Carolina macular dystrophy, pattern dystrophy, and central areolar choroidal dystrophy.
