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
The aim of this study was to analyse data from a clinical database using a novel visual acuity parameter to determine whether anti-VEGF molecules that target multiple domains involved in neovascularisation are more likely to achieve good visual acuity than agents that solely inhibit VEGF. This retrospective study analysed data from patients treated with anti-VEGF injections between 2015 and 2023. We set an ETDRS score threshold of 70 (equivalent to 20/40 Snellen acuity) to calculate 'time in range' (TIR). TIR is defined as 'time spent with best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) better than 20/40' and can highlight significant variations in the time individuals spend above the threshold during their AMD treatment. Over nine years, 30,209 aflibercept and 10,876 ranibizumab injections were administered to 6043 patients. Patients received an average of 6.8 injections. The mean BCVA at the first injection was 57.00 ± 16.15 ETDRS letters for ranibizumab patients and 58.75 ± 15.82 for aflibercept patients, with a statistically significant difference (
