Antioxidants in Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Lights and Shadows.
Review in Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision impairment worldwide, primarily driven by oxidative stress and inflammation. This review examines the role of antioxidants in mitigating oxidative damage, emphasizing both their therapeutic potential and limitations in AMD management. Key findings underscore the efficacy of specific antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, lutein, zeaxanthin, and Coenzyme Q10, in slowing AMD progression. Landmark studies such as AREDS and AREDS2 have shaped current antioxidant formulations, although challenges persist, including patient variability and long-term safety concerns. Emerging therapies, such as mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants and novel compounds like saffron and resveratrol, offer promising avenues for AMD treatment. Complementary lifestyle interventions, including antioxidant-rich diets and physical activity, further support holistic management approaches. This review highlights the critical role of antioxidants in AMD therapy, advocating for personalized strategies to optimize patient outcomes.
