Chorioretinal folds: a proposed diagnostic algorithm.
Review in International ophthalmology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 create a diagnostic algorithm for the management of chorioretinal folds.
methodsWe reviewed the existing literature about chorioretinal folds focusing our attention on three specific conditions and created a diagnostic algorithm in order to otpimize the choice and the number of investigations.
resultsChorioretinal folds are visible striations of the fundus usually arranged in parallel lines and disposed horizontally. They may be either unilateral or bilateral, symptomatic or asymptomatic and are often associated with different possible ocular and extra ocular pathologies, including systemic diseases like autoimmune disorders and intracranial hypertension. They are named idiopathic when no apparent cause for their development is detectable. However, with improved diagnostic testing, the patients with idiopathic choroidal folds are likely to represent only a smaller portion of the total.
conclusionsSince choroidal folds be the sole sign of an underlying disease possibly requiring a multidisciplinary approach, an appropriate work-up varying according to the specific clinical features of each case is needed to define the etiology and the treatment. A diagnosting algorithm may be useful in order to optimize the diagnostic approach and management.
