The Use Of Fundus Photography In The Emergency Room-A Review.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 of reviewThe ocular fundus reveals a wealth of pathophysiological findings which should change patient management in the emergency room (ER). Traditional fundoscopy has been technically challenging and diagnostically inaccurate, but technological advances in non-mydriatic fundus photography (NMFP) have facilitated clinically meaningful fundoscopy. This review presents an update on the literature regarding NMFP and its application to the ER, illustrating pivotal publications and recent advances within this field. RECENT
findingsNMFP's application in the ER is demonstrably feasible and seamlessly integrates into emergency physicians' (EP) diagnostic workflows in a clinically meaningful and time efficient manner. The images of the ocular fundus (OF) generated by NMFP are consistently high quality, allowing a greater diagnostic accuracy to EP and ophthalmology interpreters alike. Digital NMFP images facilitate effective ophthalmology input via telemedicine to review the images in the ER. NMFP has been shown to change management decisions in the ER, improving patient and departmental outcomes. Interpretation of fundus images remains a medical education challenge, and early research highlights the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) image systems of NMFP to augment image interpretation in the ER. NMFP can change the ER approach to OF assessment, however the factors limiting its routine implementation need further consideration. There is potential for AI to contribute to NMFP image screening systems to augment EPs diagnostic accuracy.
