High-Resolution Imaging of Cones and Retinal Arteries in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 Using Adaptive Optics (rtx1).

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
(1) Background. Diabetes mellitus (DM), called the first non-infectious epidemic of the modern era, has long-term health consequences leading to a reduced quality of life, long-term disabilities, and high mortality. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a neurovascular complication of diabetes and accounts for about 80% cases of vision loss in the diabetic population. The adaptive optics (AO) technique allows for a non-invasive in vivo assessment of retinal cones. Changes in number or morphology of retinal cones may be one of the first indicators of DR. (2) Methods. This study included 68 DM1 patients (17 women) aged 42.11 ± 9.69 years with a mean duration of diabetes of 22.07 ± 10.28 years, and 41 healthy volunteers (20 women) aged 41.02 ± 9.84 years. Blood pressure, BMI, waist circumference, and metabolic control measures were analysed. Cones' morphological parameters were examined with a retinal camera with Imagine Eyes adaptive optics (rtx1). Statistical analysis was carried out with IMB SPSS version 23 software. (3) Results. Neither study group differed significantly in age, BMI, blood pressure, or eyeball length. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was statistically significantly higher in DM1 patients but remained within physiological range in both groups. Analysis of cone parameters showed a statistically significant lower mean regularity of cones (Rmean) in the DM1 group compared to control group (
