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

Case Report and Case Series. Purpose: To report a case of retinopathy in a 32-year-old man with Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) and highlight the unique multimodal imaging findings that can aid in diagnosing this rare condition. Observations: We present a case of a 32-year-old Hispanic male who presented to the retina clinic following referral from optometry to evaluate for retinitis pigmentosa. He complained of difficulty driving at night and photophobia for 3 years. Visual acuity was 20/25 without correction in the right eye and 20/50 with pinhole correction in the left eye. Fundus examination was notable for bilateral fairly symmetric pigmentary changes along the retinal arcades. OCT revealed blunted foveal contour, perifoveal outer retinal thinning with central sparing in both eyes, and thickening of the external limiting membrane. Fundus autofluorescence showed a central parafoveal hyperautofluorescent ring and diffuse granular hypoautofluorescence in a symmetric bull's eye pattern. Conclusions and Importance: The multimodal imaging findings from this case of a 32-year-old male with ocular manifestations of MPS II are characteristic of this rare condition. Recognizing these findings may aid in the diagnosis and subsequent management of patients with MPS II.
