Evaluation of visual evoked potential in chronic myeloid leukemias.

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
backgroundVisual complaint is not very uncommon in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. Our study aims to evaluate the visual pathway using visual evoked potential (VEP) in cases of CML at the time of diagnosis and 6 weeks after tyrosine kinase therapy, to find out treatment impact in asymptomatic as well as symptomatic individuals and compare it with the general population. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis is an analytical cross-sectional study. The study group comprised 20 newly diagnosed cases of CML and 20 age- and sex-matched healthy control population. A thorough history and clinical examination with detailed ophthalmological studies, including VEP, were done. Cases who had VEP abnormalities were then followed-up after 6 weeks post-Imatinib therapy and underwent repeat investigations, including VEP.
resultsVEP in cases was significantly deranged (
conclusionConsiderable evidence appear to support the notion that CML patients have a higher prevalence of ophthalmic manifestations as compared to the general population, which can be screened earlier with objective tests like VEP. Concurrently, hematological parameters and VEP showed derangement at the time of diagnosis. After 6 weeks of Imatinib treatment, the improvement in VEP can then be attributed to a reduction in TLC. Hence it can be deduced that VEP has paramount importance in the early identification of ophthalmic manifestations, which are reversible with timely treatment.
