Peripapillary Region Perfusion and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness Abnormalities in Diabetic Retinopathy Assessed by OCT Angiography.

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 quantify peripapillary region perfusion and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness abnormalities in different stages of diabetic retinopathy (DR) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
methodsSeventy-two eyes of 72 patients with diabetes were included as follows: 23 with no DR (No DR), 24 with mild-to-moderate nonproliferative DR (mild DR), 25 with severe nonproliferative to proliferative DR (severe DR), and 26 age-matched healthy controls. All eyes underwent a 4.5 × 4.5-mm rectangle scan centered on the optic nerve head. Vessel densities and RNFL thickness for the peripapillary area were calculated.
resultsA statistically significant decrease in vessel density was found in the peripapillary region with increased DR severity (all
conclusionsVessel density in the peripapillary region correlated significantly with DR severity, decreasing with DR aggravation. There was no obvious correlation observed between RNFL thickness and DR severity. TRANSLATIONAL RELEVANCE: Vessel density in the peripapillary region, assessed by OCTA technology, can be potentially useful for analyzing and monitoring retinal nerve changes in DR patients.
