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

backgroundChoroideremia is a monogenic inherited retinal dystrophy that manifests in males with night blindness, progressive loss of peripheral vision, and ultimately profound sight loss, commonly by middle age. It is caused by genetic defects of the METHODS AND

resultsIn this manuscript, we demonstrate the use of both short-wavelength blue and near-infrared autofluorescence and how these imaging modalities reveal distinct disease patterns in choroideremia. In addition, we show how these structural measurements relate to retinal functional measures, namely microperimetry, and discuss the potential role of these retinal imaging modalities in clinical practice and research studies. Moreover, we discuss the mechanisms underlying retinal autofluorescence patterns by imaging with a particular focus on melanin pigment.

conclusionsThis could be of particular significance given the current progress in therapeutic options, including gene replacement therapy.
