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

aimTo compare the macular structure including foveal thickness among patients with optic neuritis (ON) according to the etiology and to investigate the possible correlation between structural and visual outcomes.

methodsIn this retrospective cross-sectional study, the clinical data of patients with aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G-related ON (AQP4 group, 40 eyes), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein IgG-related ON (MOG group, 31 eyes), and multiple sclerosis-related ON (MS group, 24 eyes) were obtained. The retinal thickness of the foveal, parafoveal and perifoveal regions were measured. Visual acuity (VA), visual field index and mean deviation were measured as visual outcomes.

resultsThe AQP4 group showed a significantly thinner fovea (226.4±13.4 µm) relative to the MOG (236.8±14.0 µm,

conclusionThe significant thinning in the fovea and parafoveal areas in the AQP4 group compared to the MOG and MS groups are found. Additionally, macular changes in AQP4-ON show a significant correlation with VA. The results provide the possibility that retinal structural damage could reflect functional damage in AQP4-ON, distinct from MOG-ON and MS-ON.
