Two-Year Risk of Exudation in Eyes with Nonexudative Age-Related Macular Degeneration and Subclinical Neovascularization Detected with Swept Source Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 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
purposeSwept source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) was used to study the prevalence, incidence, and natural history of subclinical macular neovascularization (MNV) in eyes with unilateral nonexudative age-related macular degeneration.
designProspective cohort study.
methodsPatients were imaged using 3- × 3-mm and 6- × 6-mm SS-OCTA scan patterns. MNV was detected using the outer retina to choriocapillaris en face slab. Prevalence and incidence of subclinical MNV, Kaplan-Meier cumulative estimates for the overall risk of exudation, and the association between neovascular lesion size and the risk of exudation were assessed through 2 years.
resultsFrom August 2014 through March 2018, 227 patients (154 intermediate and 73 late age-related macular degeneration eyes) underwent SS-OCTA imaging. Thirty eyes (13.2%) had subclinical MNV at first imaging and 12 eyes (8.9%) developed subclinical MNV during follow-up. Of the 191 eyes with >1 visit, 19 developed exudation. Fourteen of these eyes had pre-existing subclinical MNV. The incidence of exudation from the time of first detection of any subclinical MNV was 34.5%. The relative risk of exudation after detection of subclinical MNV was 13.6 times greater (95% confidence interval 4.9-37.7) than in the absence of subclinical MNV (P < .001). There was no significant risk of exudation based on lesion size alone (P = .91).
conclusionsBy 24 months, the risk of exudation was 13.6 times greater for eyes with subclinical MNV detected by SS-OCTA compared with eyes without subclinical MNV. For eyes with subclinical MNV in the absence of symptomatic exudation, we recommend close follow-up without treatment.
