Multimodal Ophthalmic Imaging in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 7.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The aim of this case series and narrative literature review is to highlight the importance of multimodal imaging in the ophthalmological examination of patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 and provide a summary of the most relevant imaging techniques. Three patients with SCA7 were included in this case series. A literature review revealed twenty-one publications regarding ocular manifestations of SCA7, and the most relevant aspects are summarized. The role of different imaging techniques in the follow-up of SCA7 patients is analyzed, including color vision testing, corneal endothelial topography, color fundus photography (CFP) and autofluorescence, near infrared reflectance imaging, spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT), visual field examination, and electrophysiological tests. SDOCT provides a rapid and non-invasive imaging evaluation of disease progression over time. Additional examination including NIR imaging can provide further information on photoreceptor alteration and subtle disruption of the RPE, which are not evident with CFP at an early stage. Electrophysiological tests provide essential results on the state of cone and rod dystrophy, which could be paramount in guiding future genetic therapies. Multimodal imaging is a valuable addition to comprehensive ophthalmological examination in the diagnosis and management of patients with SCA7.
