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

Visual evoked potentials (VEP) are visually evoked signals that extract electroencephalographic activity in the visual cortex that can detect retinal ganglion cells, optic nerves, chiasmal and retrochiasmal dysfunction, including optic radiations, and the occipital cortex. Because diabetes causes diabetic retinopathy due to microangiopathy and neuropathy due to metabolic abnormalities and intraneural blood flow disorders, assessment of diabetic visual pathway impairment using VEP has been attempted. In this review, evidence on the attempts to assess the visual pathway dysfunction due to abnormal blood glucose levels using VEP is presented. Previous studies have provided significant evidence that VEP can functionally detect antecedent neuropathy before fundus examination. The detailed correlations between VEP waveforms and disease duration, HbA1c, glycemic control, and short-term increases and decreases in blood glucose levels are evaluated. VEP may be useful for predicting postoperative prognosis and evaluating visual function before surgery for diabetic retinopathy. Further controlled studies with larger cohorts are needed to establish a more detailed relationship between diabetes mellitus and VEP.
