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

backgroundKCNV2-associated retinopathy causes a phenotype reported as "cone dystrophy with nyctalopia and supernormal rod responses (CDSRR; OMIM# 610356)," featuring pathognomonic findings on electroretinography (ERG). Here, we report the clinical courses of two siblings with CDSRR. CASE REPORTS: Patient 1: A 3-year-old boy with intermittent exophoria was referred to our hospital. The patient's decimal best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at age 6 was 0.7 and 0.7 in the right and left eyes, respectively. Photophobia and night blindness were also observed. Because the ERG showed a delayed and supernormal b-wave with a "squaring (trough-flattened)" a-wave in the DA-30 ERG, and CDSRR was diagnosed. The patient's vision gradually worsened, and faint bilateral bull's eye maculopathy was observed at the age of 27 years, although the fundi were initially unremarkable. Genetic examination revealed a homozygous missense variant, c.529T > C (p.Cys177Arg), in the KCNV2 gene. Patient 2: The second patient was Patient 1's younger sister, who was brought to our hospital at 3 years of age. The patient presented with exotropia, mild nystagmus, photophobia, night blindness, and color vision abnormalities. The patients' decimal BCVA at age 13 was 0.6 and 0.4 in the right and left eyes, respectively, and BCVA gradually decreased until the age of 24 years. The fundi were unremarkable. The siblings had similar ERG findings and the same homozygous missense variant in the KCNV2 gene.

conclusionsThe siblings had clinical findings typical of CDSRR. High-intense flash ERG is recommended for identifying pathognomonic "squaring" a-waves in patients with CDSRR.
