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

aimsTo report main outcomes and complications following voretigene neparvovec (Luxturna) treatment in paediatric patients.

methodsRecords of patients under the age of 17 treated by subretinal administration of voretigene neparvovec for confirmed biallelic

results12 eyes of six patients (mean age: 7.8 years) were analysed. No intraoperative complications occurred. BCVA significantly improved at 12-month follow-up (mean LogMAR (logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution) BCVA: 1.0±0.8 at baseline vs 0.6±0.3 at 12 months, p=0.001). Mean central macular thickness and central outer nuclear layer thickness did not change at 12 months follow-up. VF V4e isopter did not show significant changes. Postoperatively complications included: elevated intraocular pressure in two eyes of the same patient, a parafoveal lamellar hole at 3 months post-treatment and atrophy on the injection site observed in all eyes except one, which significantly enlarged during 12 months (p=0.008).

conclusionsMost paediatric patients treated by voretigene neparvovec showed a significant increase in visual function at 12 months follow-up. None of the postoperative complications prevented gains in visual function.
