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 determine whether disorganization of retinal inner layers (DRIL) on optical coherence tomography (OCT) is associated with ischemia on ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography (UWFFA) and with visual outcomes in eyes with acute, treatment-naïve central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).

designRetrospective, single-institution, longitudinal cohort study.

participantsTwenty-five consecutive patients with treatment-naïve CRVO and ≥ 1 year follow-up.

methodsTwo independent masked graders evaluated the extent of DRIL, ellipsoid zone disruption, external limiting membrane disruption, and other OCT parameters at the baseline, 6- month, 12-month, and final visits. Baseline UWFFA images were assessed for ischemic index values and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) enlargement.

main outcome measuresAssociations of DRIL with UWFFA findings and clinical outcomes including corrected visual acuity (VA).

resultsThe median time to final follow-up was 24 months (range 12.1 - 43.9 months). Median DRIL extent at baseline was 765 µm (range 0 - 1000 µm). Eighteen of 25 eyes (72%) had some degree of DRIL at baseline, and 20 of 25 eyes (80%) had cystoid macular edema (CME). Neither the presence nor extent of DRIL at baseline was associated with presenting VA. In a cross-sectional analysis of each visit, extent of DRIL correlated with worse VA at both the 6-month (

conclusionsExtent of DRIL was not associated with presenting VA in treatment-naïve eyes with acute CRVO. Following six months of follow-up however, DRIL extent correlated with worse VA and was predictive of worse VA throughout more than 2 years of follow-up. Ischemic features on UWFFA at baseline are predictive of the extent of DRIL development at final follow-up.
