Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy: Support, Genetic Prediction and Accurate Genetic Counselling Enhance Family Planning Choices.
Review in Clinical & experimental ophthalmology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
With the increased availability of genetic testing and the addition of mitochondrial genetic variants on disease panels, accurate genetic counselling for individuals and families affected by, or at risk of, Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is becoming increasingly relevant. Challenges in providing genetic counselling for LHON include its mitochondrial inheritance pattern, different haplogroups, incomplete penetrance and that it predominantly affects males. Accurate genetic counselling aims to avoid incorrect disease-risk assessment and delays in either diagnosis or implementation of psychosocial support. Families are also empowered to make autonomous health decisions regarding potential trigger factors for LHON vision loss and informed reproductive choices. Using clinical vignettes, this review demonstrates that an increased awareness of LHON amongst eye care, general and genetic health professionals can address challenges and misconceptions.
