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

Purpose: To report a case of multifocal vitelliform lesions in a patient affected by metabolic encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) with the m.3243A>G variant. Observations: A 37-year-old woman affected by MELAS was referred to our center for progressive vision deterioration. On fundus examination, she presented bilateral macular atrophy associated in the left eye with neurosensory detachment, along with several bilateral vitelliform lesions close to the vascular arcades. We describe the dynamic evolution of the vitelliform lesions, which could either enlarge and coalesce or undergo atrophic evolution. Conclusions: Mitochondrial retinopathy due to the m.3243A>G variant can be associated with multifocal vitelliform lesions.
