Effects of Smoothing and Adaptive Filtering in Multifocal Electroretinography (mfERG).
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
(1) Background: mfERG testing is used to study the function of cone photoreceptors in the central retina. Various filters including "smoothing" (Smooth) and "adaptive data filtering" (Adapt) are used to simplify raw data. This study will seek to characterize the effect of data modification on raw patient data. (2) Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients with mfERG results at our institution. For each patient, raw mfERG data without filtering, with smooth level 4 modifier applied, and with adapt level 4 applied were collected and compared. (4) Conclusions: In all patients, smoothing and adaptive filter modifiers create statistically significant differences in both P1 latency and P1 amplitude values when compared to raw data. The impacts of these filters demonstrated in this study should impact physicians' decision making when interpreting mfERG results.
