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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsAngiogenesis is associated with neoplastic progression of Barrett's esophagus (BE). Volumetric optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) visualizes subsurface microvasculature without exogenous contrast agents. We investigated the association of OCTA microvascular features with low-grade dysplasia (LGD) and high-grade dysplasia (HGD).

methodsFifty-two patients undergoing BE surveillance or endoscopic eradication therapies for dysplasia were imaged using volumetric OCTA and corresponding histologic diagnoses wre obtained to yield 97 data sets (nondysplastic BE [NDBE], 74; LGD, 10; HGD, 13). After evaluating OCTA image quality, 54 datasets (NDBE, 35; LGD, 8; HGD, 11) from 32 patients were used to develop a training and reading protocol. The association of abnormal vessel branching and heterogeneous vessel size with LGD/HGD and a regular honeycomb vessel pattern with NDBE were investigated.

resultsBlinded OCTA reading of 41 OCTA datasets (NDBE, 27; LGD, 7; HGD, 7) was performed by readers with various levels of OCT/OCTA experience including 3 OCT trainees, 1 gastroenterologist, and 2 gastroenterology fellows. Among the 6 readers, OCTA features of abnormal vessel branching and heterogeneous vessel size had an overall 94% sensitivity (95% CI, 89-99) and 69% specificity (95% CI, 62-76) for differentiating LGD/HGD versus NDBE with a mean reading time of 45 seconds per data set and moderate (kappa = .58) interobserver agreement.

conclusionsVolumetric en face OCTA imaging enables rapid examination of depth resolved microvascular features with near-microscopic resolution. OCTA can visualize microvascular features associated with LGD/HGD with high accuracy, which motivates new technologic advances and future studies investigating the diagnostic performance of OCTA.
