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

purposeTo describe the natural history of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and mesopic microperimetry (MP) parameters in the Rate of Progression of USH2A-related Retinal Degeneration (RUSH2A) study.

designMulticenter, international, prospective, longitudinal natural history study.

methodsStudy Population: 105 participants with biallelic disease-causing variants in USH2A with a clinical diagnosis of Usher Syndrome or autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa who underwent annual testing over 4 years. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Ellipsoid zone (EZ) area and central sub-field thickness (CST) on OCT. Mean sensitivity (MS) and mean pointwise sensitivity at predefined functional transition points (MS

resultsA total of 101 and 94 participants met criteria for OCT and MP analysis, respectively. The average EZ area was 3.9 ± 5.3 mm

conclusionsThis study establishes the natural history of key structural and functional parameters in USH2A-retinopathy. The MS
