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
purposeTo describe a spectral domain optical coherence (OCT)-assisted method of measuring retinal vessel diameters.
methodsAll Patients with an OCT circle scan centered at the optic nerve head using a Spectralis OCT (Heidelberg Engineering, Heidelberg, Germany) were retrospectively reviewed. Individual retinal vessels were identified on infrared reflectance (IR) images and given unique labels both on IR and spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT). Vessel width and vessel types obtained by IR were documented as ground truth. From OCT, measurements of each vessel, including horizontal vessel contour diameter, vertical vessel contour diameter, horizontal hyperreflective core diameter, and reflectance shadowing width, were assessed.
resultsA total of 220 vessels from 13 eyes of 12 patients were labeled, among which, 194 vessels (88 arteries and 65 veins confirmed from IR) larger than 40 microns were included in the study. The mean vessel width obtained from IR was 107.9 ± 36.1 microns. A mean vertical vessel contour diameter of 119.6 ± 29.9 microns and a mean horizontal vessel contour diameter of 124.1 ± 31.1 microns were measured by SD-OCT. Vertical vessel contour diameter did not differ from vessel width in all subgroup analysis. Horizontal vessel contour diameter was not significantly different from vessel width for arteries and had strong or very strong correlation with vessel width for veins.
conclusionIn our study, vertical vessel contour diameter measured by current commercially available SD-OCT was consistent with vessel width obtained by IR with good reproducibility. This SD-OCT based method could potentially be used as a standard measurement procedure to evaluate retinal vessel diameters and their changes in ocular and systemic disorders.
