Visual functioning in patients with macular degeneration compared to patients with cataracts.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 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
aimTo compare Visual Functioning Questionnaire-25 (VFQ) response data in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) to patients with cataracts.
methodsIn total 415 individuals with early or intermediate AMD and 236 patients with visually significant cataracts who completed the VFQ-25 from a single academic eye center registry between July 2014 and May 2022 were identified. The effect of disease (AMD versus cataract) on VFQ composite score was analyzed using univariate and multivariable linear regression, controlling for age, race/ethnicity, history of transient ischemic attack (TIA)/stroke, and visual acuity.
resultsAMD patients were older than the cataract group (76.0±7.4y
conclusionPatients with early or intermediate AMD report higher visual functioning compared to patients with cataracts in composite score and all VFQ subscale categories in both unadjusted and adjusted analyses.
