Enhanced S-cone Syndrome, a Mini-review.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 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
Enhanced S-cone Syndrome (ESCS) is an autosomal recessive inherited retinal disease mostly associated with disease-causing variants in the NR2E3 gene. During retinal development in ESCS, rod photoreceptor precursors are misdirected to form photoreceptors similar to short-wavelength cones, or S-cones. Compared to a normal human retina, patients with ESCS have no rods and significantly increased numbers of S-cones. Night blindness is the main visual symptom, and visual acuity and color vision can be normal at early disease stages. Histology of donor eyes and adaptive optics imaging revealed increased S-cone density outside of the fovea compared to normal. Visual function testing reveals absent rod function and abnormally enhanced sensitivity to short-wavelength light. Unlike most retinal degenerative diseases, ESCS results in a gain in S-cone photoreceptor function. Research involving ESCS could improve understanding of this rare retinal condition and also shed light on the role of NR2E3 expression in photoreceptor survival.
