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

Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a common complication in various retinal disorders, often leading to significant central vision impairment. However, the underlying genetic causes and detailed clinical features in patients with fluctuating CME remain unclear. This retrospective, observational case series analyzed two patients from a single family with fluctuating CME, focusing on both clinical and genetic aspects. Data were collected and analyzed from September 2022 to January 2023 at a single center. Comprehensive ocular examinations, including best-corrected visual acuity tests, color fundus photography, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), optical coherence tomography (OCT), visual field tests, flash electroretinography, multifocal electroretinography, and electrooculography, were performed. Genetic analysis was conducted using whole exome sequencing, with confirmation through Sanger sequencing and co-segregation analysis. The results identified two compound heterozygous variants in the
