Optical coherence tomography angiography findings in preeclampsia.
Article in Eye (London, England), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
objectivesTo investigate vascular density analysis in the superficial (SCP) and deep capillary plexus (DCP), foveal avascular zone (FAZ), peripapillary vascular density analysis (PPCVD), and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber thickness analysis (PPRNFL) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in pregnant women with preeclampsia and to compare the obtained values with healthy pregnant and nonpregnant healthy individuals.
methodsA total of 98 pregnant women (55 had preeclampsia, 43 were healthy pregnant women) and 38 healthy nonpregnant women of reproductive age were included in the study. The patients were divided into three groups. Group 1 consisted of pregnant women with preeclampsia, group 2 comprised healthy pregnant women without preeclampsia, and group 3 consisted of healthy women who were not pregnant. All participants underwent a comprehensive ophthalmologic examination including OCTA.
resultsSuperficial foveal density (SFD) and deep foveal density (DFD) were lower in group 1 than in group 3 (p = 0.033, p = 0.041, respectively). Deep parafoveal density (DPD), deep temporal density (DTD), and deep superior density (DSD) values were lower in group 1 than in group 2 and group 3 (p = 0.001). PPRNFL superior and mean values were higher in group 1 and group 2 than in group 3 (p = 0.022, p = 0.029, respectively). The mean superior and inferior RPCVD values were significantly higher in group 1 than in group 2 and group 3 (p = 0.001, p = 0.043, and p = 0.001, respectively).
conclusionsIn preeclampsia, OCTA shows changes in the microvascular structure of the retina, even without retinopathy findings on biomicroscopy examination.
