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

This case report presents a 26-year-old female patient diagnosed with fundus albipunctatus (FAP), a rare form of congenital stationary night blindness. The patient's clinical history and retinal findings spanning 23 years are consistent with FAP. The patient has profound night blindness, photophobia, and mild color vision changes with preserved best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Small white dots are present throughout the fundus, sparing the central macula. Electroretinograms (ERG) are consistent with congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) and suggest a lack of rod response. Ophthalmic imaging has remained stable over time. Genetic testing revealed two biallelic missense mutations in the LRAT gene, c.197G>A (p.Gly66Glu) and c.557A>C (p.Lys186Thr). LRAT mutations are known to contribute to other retinal conditions but have not been previously associated with FAP. While there are currently no available treatments for FAP, this report expands our understanding of the genetic landscape of FAP to include LRAT and provides clinical data to support this finding.
