Choroidal thickness in non-ocular Behçet's disease - A spectral-domain OCT study.
Article in Journal of current ophthalmology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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 evaluate choroidal thickness in patients with non-ocular Behçet's disease (BD) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and to compare the results to normal eyes.
methodsIn this retrospective observational comparative study, we collected OCT and clinical data from the charts of 4 patients (7 eyes) with BD who had been referred for a screening eye exam and had a normal ocular examination. Data from 9 healthy volunteers (17 eyes) were collected as age-matched controls. The choroid was manually segmented from volume OCT scans using custom Doheny Image Reading Center OCT grading software (3D-OCTOR). Main outcome measures were choroidal thickness and intensity were compared between eyes of patients with BD and those of healthy controls.
resultsEyes of patients with non-ocular BD had significantly thinner mean central subfield choroidal thickness (227.5 ± 56.93 versus 306.85 ± 17.85,
conclusionThis study demonstrates that BD may have subclinical manifestations in the choroid, resulting in thinning of the choroid relative to normal eyes, even without overt signs of ocular involvement.
