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

purposeVisual acuity (VA) assessment is crucial for evaluating visual function, but inter-clinic VA measurement variations were observed in patients with epiretinal membrane (ERM). Inter-clinic variations in acuity chart luminance exist because the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) recommends a range of 80-320 cd/m STUDY

designProspective observational study.

methodsWe analyzed data from 187 patients with ERM and a normal fellow eye with a decimal VA of ≥1.0 at 320 cd/m

resultsIn normal fellow eyes, a two-line VA reduction occurred at approximately 40 cd/m

conclusionsConsidering the luminance is critical when measuring VA in patients with ERM.
