Indocyanine green angiography-guided focal navigated laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular edema.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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 the efficacy of indocyanine-green angiography (ICGA)-guided navigated focal laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular edema (DME). STUDY
designProspective, interventional case series.
methodsSix patients (8 eyes) were enrolled in this study. Fluorescein angiography (FA) and ICGA were performed using the Heidelberg Retina Angiogram 2 (Heidelberg Engineering). Navigated focal laser photocoagulation was delivered to the microaneurysms on ICGA using Navilas
resultsAll eyes had previous treatment history. At 6 months, ICGA-guided navigated focal laser photocoagulation significantly reduced the CRT and the MV (p<0.05), and there was improvement in the BCVA (p<0.05). At 3 months, 5 out of the 8 eyes (63%) underwent additional ICGA-guided navigated focal laser photocoagulation due to remnants of MAs that had been confirmed by ICGA. There was no observed recurrence of edema after the ICGA-guided navigated focal laser photocoagulation during the 6-month follow-up. The mean distance from the center of fovea to the closest MAs was 624.8 ± 377.7 μm (range 336.0-1438.9 μm).
conclusionOur data suggest ICGA-guided navigated focal laser photocoagulation may be effective for the treatment of DME.
