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

BACKGROUND AND

objectives

methods84 studies, including 373 worldwide participants, were reviewed. These studies were checked for quality using Murad's tool for methodological quality and synthesis of case series and case reports. Clinical data, fundus imaging characteristics and genetic pathogenic variants were analysed.

resultsThe quality analysis revealed an overall good quality of the dataset, with some exceptions that do not detract from this trend. A predominance of cone-rod dystrophy (CRD) and Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) among
