History of Finding Genes and Mutations Causing Inherited Retinal Diseases.
Review in Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
This is a brief history of the work by many investigators throughout the world to find genes and mutations causing inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). It largely covers 40 years, from the late-1980s through today. Perhaps the best reason to study history is to better understand the present. The "present" for IRDs is exceptionally complex. Mutations in hundreds of genes are known to cause IRDs; tens of thousands of disease-causing mutations have been reported; clinical consequences are highly variable, even within the same family; and genetic testing, counseling, and clinical care are highly advanced but technically challenging. The aim of this review is to account for how we have come to know and understand, at least partly, this complexity.
