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

Introduction: Our previous research identified pathogenic variants in RetNet genes in 23.4% of individuals with early-onset high myopia. This study aims to analyze the genetic defects in patients with high myopia complicated by rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Method: Whole-exome sequencing was performed on 40 patients with high myopia accompanied by retinal detachment. Variants were filtered from 281 RetNet genes, 178 genes related to syndromic high myopia, 23 non-syndromic high myopia-associated genes, and 29 rhegmatogenous retinal detachment-related genes using a multistep bioinformatics approach. Clinical data were collected for genotype-phenotype correlation analysis. Results: Pathogenic variants were detected in 47.5% (19/40) in patients with high myopia accompanied by retinal detachment, specifically in RetNet genes (18/40), rhegmatogenous retinal detachment-related genes (11/40), and syndromic high myopia associated genes (10/40). No variants were found in non-syndromic genes. The most prevalent pathogenic genes for high myopia with retinal detachment were Stickler-related genes, including Conclusion: RetNet genes are the predominant causative genes (18/40, 45.0%) in patients with high myopia and retinal detachment. The findings affirm that Stickler syndrome (15%) is a significant etiological factor for high myopia accompanied by retinal detachment. We recommend enhanced comprehensive systemic and ophthalmic examinations for patients with high myopia to enable early detection and prevention of retinal detachment.
