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

purposeThe purpose of the study was to evaluate macular microvascular alterations using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in typical retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients with and without isolated macular lesions, and to assess their relationship with best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study included 77 patients with typical RP from the Taiwan Inherited Retinal Degeneration Project, categorized into two groups: with isolated macular lesions (T+M,

resultsBoth RP groups showed compromised macular microcirculation compared to controls. FAZ area was significantly larger in the T+M group than in controls (

conclusionMacular microvascular impairment is a common feature in typical RP, but its association with central visual loss is particularly pronounced in those with isolated macular lesions. OCTA parameters may serve as useful biomarkers for clinical monitoring and prognosis in this subgroup.
