Targeted spectroscopy in the eye fundus.
Article in Journal of biomedical optics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Significance: The assessment of biomarkers in the eye is rapidly gaining traction for the screening, diagnosis, and monitoring of ocular and neurological diseases. Targeted ocular spectroscopy is a technology that enables concurrent imaging of the eye fundus and analysis of high-quality spectra from a targeted region within the imaged area. This provides structural, compositional, and functional information of specific regions of the eye fundus from a non-invasive approach to ocular biomarker detection. Aim: The aim of our study was to demonstrate the multimodal functionality and validation of targeted ocular spectroscopy. This was done Approach: Images and spectra from different regions of a reference target and a model eye were acquired and analyzed to validate the system. Targeted ocular fluorescence spectroscopy was also demonstrated with the same model. Subsequently, Results: Tests conducted with the reference target showed accurate spectral analysis within specific areas of the imaging space. In the model eye, distinct spectral signatures were observed for the optic disc, blood vessels, the retina, and the macula, consistent with the variations in tissue composition and functions between these regions. An ocular oximetry algorithm was applied to Conclusions: Diffuse reflectance and fluorescence spectroscopy in specific regions of the eye fundus open the door to a whole new range of monitoring and diagnostic capabilities, from assessment of oxygenation in glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy to photo-oxidation and photodegradation in age-related macular degeneration.
