Correlation between B-scan optical coherence tomography, en face thickness map ring and hyperautofluorescent ring in retinitis pigmentosa patients.

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
objectiveTo evaluate and compare the B-scan OCT loss of ellipsoid zone, OCT en face thickness map constriction, and hyperautofluorescent ring constriction in RP patients.
methodsRetrospective case series study. Forty-eight eyes of 24 RP patients with a parafoveal hyperautofluorescent ring were studied. The diagnosis of RP was established by the presence of rod response impairment and a prevalent decrease of scotopic over photopic responses on electroretinography. The FAF and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) images were obtained from 24 patients with RP. The measurements of the EZ line width on B-scan OCT, hyperautofluorescent ring area on FAF, and hyperautofluorescent ring area on en face thickness map were performed by two independent graders. The measurements of these three parameters were correlated.
resultsThe mean age of study patients was 46 years old (sd = 19). The external and internal FAF rings involving the fovea were identified in all study eyes. The area of the thickness ring decreased at an average rate of 0.5 (sd 0.4) mm
conclusionsWe observed that the hyperautofluorescent ring area exhibits a faster progression rate than the area of the thickness ring. In addition, we found that the EZ-line width had a high positive correlation with the hyperautofluorescent ring area and a moderate positive correlation with area of the thickness ring.
