Chromatic pupillometry isolation and evaluation of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell-driven pupillary light response in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.

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
Purpose: The pupil light response (PLR) is driven by rods, cones, and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). We aimed to isolate ipRGC-driven pupil responses using chromatic pupillometry and to determine the effect of advanced retinitis pigmentosa (RP) on ipRGC function. Methods: A total of 100 eyes from 67 patients with advanced RP and 18 healthy controls (HCs) were included. Patients were divided into groups according to severity of visual impairment: no light perception (NLP, 9 eyes), light perception (LP, 19 eyes), faint form perception (FFP, 34 eyes), or form perception (FP, 38 eyes). Pupil responses to rod-weighted (487 nm, -1 log cd/m Results: We found a slow, sustained PLR response to the ipRGC-weighted stimulus in most patients with NLP (8/9), but these patients had no detectable rod- or cone-driven PLR. The ipRGC-driven PLR had an MCV of 0.269 ± 0.150%/s and contraction duration of 2.562 ± 0.902 s, both of which were significantly lower than those of the rod and cone responses. The PIPRs of the RP groups did not decrease compared with those of the HCs group and were even enhanced in the LP group. At advanced stages, ipRGC responses gradually became the main component of the PLR. Conclusion: Chromatic pupillometry successfully isolated an ipRGC-driven PLR in patients with advanced RP. This PLR remained stable and gradually became the main driver of pupil contraction in more advanced cases of RP. Here, we present baseline data on ipRGC function; we expect these findings to contribute to evaluating and screening candidates for novel therapies.
