Genetic Characteristics and Long-Term Follow-Up of Slovenian Patients with RPGR Retinal Dystrophy.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Genetic characteristics and a long-term clinical follow-up of 18 Slovenian retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator (RPGR) patients from 10 families with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) or cone/cone-rod dystrophy (COD/CORD) are reported. RP (eight families) was associated with two already known (p.(Ser407Ilefs*46) and p.(Glu746Argfs*23)) and five novel variants (c.1245+704_1415-2286del, p.(Glu660*), p.(Ala153Thr), c.1506+1G>T, and p.(Arg780Serfs*54)). COD (two families) was associated with p.(Ter1153Lysext*38). The median age of onset in males with RP (N = 9) was 6 years. At the first examination (median age of 32 years), the median best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.30 logMAR, and all patients had a hyperautofluorescent ring on fundus autofluorescence (FAF) encircling preserved photoreceptors. At the last follow-up (median age of 39 years), the median BCVA was 0.48 logMAR, and FAF showed ring constriction transitioning to patch in 2/9. Among females (N = 6; median age of 40 years), two had normal/near-normal FAF, one had unilateral RP (male pattern), and three had a radial and/or focal pattern of retinal degeneration. After a median of 4 years (4-21) of follow-up, 2/6 exhibited disease progression. The median age of onset in males with COD was 25 years. At first examination (median age of 35 years), the median BCVA was 1.00 logMAR, and all patients had a hyperautofluorescent FAF ring encircling foveal photoreceptor loss. At the last follow-up (median age of 42 years), the median BCVA was 1.30 logMAR, and FAF showed ring enlargement. The majority of the identified variants (75%; 6/8) had not been previously reported in other
