Optical coherence tomography findings of the peripheral retina in patients with congenital X-linked retinoschisis.

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
Introduction: Congenital X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) presents as macular retinoschisis/degeneration in almost all patients and as peripheral retinoschisis in half the patients. Although the optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings of macular retinoschisis have been well investigated, those of peripheral retinoschisis have rarely been reported. This study aimed to report the ultra-widefield OCT findings of the peripheral retina in patients with XLRS. Methods: Medical records of 10 Japanese patients (19 eyes) with clinically and/or genetically diagnosed XLRS were retrospectively reviewed. Funduscopic, electroretinographic, and OCT findings were reviewed and evaluated. Some were also genetically evaluated for the Results: OCT of the macula revealed schises and/or cystoid changes in the inner nuclear layer (INL) and outer nuclear layer. In contrast, OCT of the peripheral retina revealed schises and/or cystoid changes in the INL in eight eyes (44%), and/or splitting in the ganglion cell layer (GCL) in 10 (56%) of the 18 eyes with clear OCT images. No schisis or cystoid changes were found in the peripheral OCT images of eight eyes (44%). A 16-year-old boy presented with retinal splitting of the GCL and INL of the inferior retina, although he had no ophthalmoscopic peripheral retinoschisis. Genetic examinations were performed on three patients, all of whom had reported missense mutations in the Conclusion: In XLRS, peripheral bullous retinoschisis results from GCL splitting in the retina. One of the 10 patients with XLRS showed intraretinal retinoschisis in the GCL in the inferior periphery, which was unremarkable on ophthalmoscopy (
