Summary of prognostic factors for choroidal neovascularization due to pathological myopia treated by intravitreal bevacizumab injection.

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
aimThis systematic review assesses the prognostic factors for intravitreal bevacizumab injection (IVB) in the treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) due to pathological myopia.
methodsThe literature searches were performed in Ovid Medline, EMBASE and CENTRAL. Relevant studies with prognostic data on best corrected vision acuity (BCVA) after intravitreal bevacizumab injection were included for review. Two reviewers participated in the data retrieval and independently assessed each included study.
resultsA total 252 articles were retrieved, including 16 studies containing the most updated and complete data on prognostic factors for neovascularization due to pathological myopia treated by intravitreal bevacizumab injection. A great number of quantitative, clinical, and treatment-related factors were determined to have a positive influence on vision outcome after intravitreal bevacizumab.
conclusionA lower rate of development of chorioretinal atrophy, smaller pretreatment CNV size, and younger age were indentified as the most consistently significant prognostic factors affecting the efficacy of IVB in eyes of myopic CNV and were associated with improved BCVA. A worse BCVA after IVB in eyes with myopic CNV probably was associated with subfoveal CNV, lower baseline BCVA, longer duration of CNV, incomplete regression of CNV, subretinal hemorrhage, and previous PDT treatment. No apparent association were observed between the refraction error, axial length, lens status and change in BCVA after IVB. We indentified significant prognostic factors in this systematic review study that might allow for the selection of patients with myopic CNV which are most likely to benefit from IVB.
