Spatial remapping improves reading with simulated central field loss.
Article in Journal of vision, 2026. 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
One way to potentially aid reading with central field loss (CFL) is to spatially remap text outside the scotoma to appear in functioning visual field locations. We tested spatial remapping using a sentence reading task with typically sighted readers and simulated scotomata. Participants read sentences with six different remapping strategies of shifting text around the scotoma and with simulated scotomata of three shapes to assess (a) whether spatial remapping improved reading speed generally and (b) whether customization of spatial remapping based on the shape of the simulated scotoma provided additional improvement. Faster reading was observed in at least one remapping condition compared to a no-remapping condition with a simulated scotoma in all participants, with an average improvement of 23.80%. Customization was also important; the remapping strategies that resulted in the fastest reading depended on the shape of the scotoma. The results showed a strong effect of remapping on reading speed. Thus, customizable spatial remapping can aid reading in the presence of a simulated scotoma and should be considered for evaluation in patients with CFL, where it can be used to shift text to areas with functioning visual capabilities.
