Optical Coherence Tomography of the Macular Ganglion Cell Complex Demonstrating Transsynaptic Retrograde Degeneration from a Temporal Lobe Tumor: A Case Report.
Article in Acta medica Philippina, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report a 39-year-old male who had generalized tonic-clonic seizure with loss of awareness. Investigations led to a diagnosis of a left temporal lobe tumor. He underwent resection of the mass with consequent loss of brain tissue in the temporal lobe and was found to have a complete right homonymous hemianopia in the immediate postoperative period. Macular ganglion cell analysis on optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed homonymous thinning affecting the inferonasal sector in the right eye and inferotemporal sector in the left eye. This case demonstrates transsynaptic retrograde degeneration through the interruption of the inferior optic radiation, and its corresponding effect on the structure and function of the affected retinal field. Temporal lobe lesions may cause not only a homonymous visual field defect contralateral to the side of the lesion but also result to homonymous sectoral thinning of the macular ganglion cell complexes in both eyes located ipsilateral to the side of the lesion.
