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

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) prolongs development of rod-mediated thresholds for detection of stimuli at 10 degrees but not 30 degrees eccentricity. In addition, to evaluate the thresholds at each site for an association with visual acuity (VA) and spherical equivalent (SE). Methods: We estimated rod-mediated dark-adapted thresholds (DATs) for the detection of 2 degree diameter, 50 ms, blue (λ < 510 nm) flashes at 10 degrees and 30 degrees eccentric in former preterm subjects (n = 111), stratified by ROP severity: None (n = 32), Mild (n = 66), and Severe (n = 13). We also tested Term-born (n = 28) controls. To determine the age at half-maximal sensitivity (Agehalf) for each group and eccentricity, we fit DATs to logistic growth curves. We obtained VA and SE for Preterm subjects and evaluated the course of threshold development at 10 degrees and 30 degrees for significant association with VA and SE predicted at age 10 years. Results: DAT development at 10 degrees was significantly delayed in ROP (Mild and Severe); ROP did not significantly alter DAT development at 30 degrees. At age 10 years, among Preterm subjects, both VA and SE were significantly associated with group (None,Mild, and Severe). SE was predicted by the course of DAT development at 30 degrees. VA was not associated with the course of DAT development at 10 degrees. Conclusions: At 10 degrees, ROP-whether mild or severe-is associated with significant delays in DAT development, evidence that the late-maturing central retina is vulnerable to ROP. The association of 30 degree threshold and myopia are evidence that more peripheral retina is important to refractive development.
