Optical coherence tomography angiography for the anterior segment.
Review in Eye and vision (London, England), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a rapid and non-invasive technique for imaging vasculature in the eye. As OCTA can produce high-resolution cross-sectional images and allow depth-resolved analysis for accurate localization of pathology of interest, it has become a promising method for anterior segment imaging. Furthermore, OCTA offers a more patient-friendly alternative to the conventional invasive dye-based fluorescent angiography. However, conventional OCTA systems are typically designed and optimized for the posterior segment of the eye, and thus using OCTA for anterior segment imaging can present several difficulties and limitations. In this review, we summarized the recent developments and clinical applications in anterior segment OCTA (AS-OCTA) imaging, such as for the cornea, iris, sclera and conjunctiva. We also compared commercially available OCTA systems, discussed the limitations of adapting current OCTA technology for the anterior segment imaging, and proposed possible future directions for AS-OCTA systems. AS-OCTA provides potential for future clinical applications such as diagnosis of corneal and iris pathologies, pre-operative surgical planning, assessment of new anti-angiogenic therapeutics or evaluation of limbal stem cell deficiency. With further development, OCTA for anterior segment imaging in the clinics may become common in the near future.
