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

Achromatopsia or rod monochromatism is a congenital autosomal recessive retinal dystrophy which leads to dysfunctional cones, with decreased visual acuity, extremely limited color vision, nystagmus and photophobia. Due to the initially normally appearing ocular morphology, the diagnosis is often delayed. With imaging procedures, e.g., fluorescence-autofluorescence (FAF) and optical coherence tomography (OCT), different morphological forms of achromatopsia can be discriminated that do not seem to have a differential effect on visual function. Crucial is the provision of specific edge filters. Mutations in six genes are known to cause achromatopsia. For the two most frequent genes, CNGA3 and CNGB3, gene addition therapies are currently being tested. Such future approaches should be applied before the manifestation of sensory-related amblyopia in the visual cortex. Accordingly, state of the art management of achromatopsia should provide a diagnosis in early childhood including genotyping.
