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 evaluate pattern electroretinogram (pattern ERG) and anatomical changes in optical coherence tomography (OCT) in acute retinal vein occlusion with macular oedema after intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection.

methodsIn this prospective interventional study, 20 patients with acute retinal vein occlusion (branch and central) of less than 1 month duration were evaluated for pattern ERG, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central macular thickness on OCT, and contrast sensitivity (CS) before and 1, 6 and 12 weeks after 1 mg IVTA injection.

resultsThe amplitude of P50 wave (pattern ERG) improved from 3.01 ± 1.22 to 3.56 ± 1.29 µv, mean logMAR BCVA improved from 1.10 ± 0.60 to 0.69 ± 0.45, and CS improved from 0.45 ± 0.41 to 0.79 ± 0.29; mean central macular thickness (CMT) decreased from 515.35 ± 202.83 to 358.35 ± 135.4µ at 12 weeks. All the values were statistically significant (p value < 0.001).

conclusionIVTA injection in acute retinal vein occlusion with macular oedema results in electrophysiological (pattern ERG) improvement in addition to anatomical (OCT) improvement.
