A Case of Best Disease Accompanied by Pachychoroid Neovasculopathy
Article in Turkish journal of ophthalmology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The aim of this case presentation is to describe ocular findings of a 22-year-old patient with Best vitelliform macular dystrophy accompanied by pachychoroid neovasculopathy. Color fundus photography, fundus autofluorescence (FAF), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) images were reviewed. Funduscopic examination showed bilateral yellowish vitelliform-like submacular deposits. FAF revealed these deposits as hyperautofluorescent spots. OCT showed flat irregular pigment epithelial detachments corresponding to these submacular deposits. OCT showed choroidal thickening and dilatation of the large outer oval choroidal vessels. Fundus fluorescein angiography could not be performed because the patient was pregnant. En face OCTA images of the choriocapillaris illustrated the choroidal neovascular network. In this case report, we describe for the first time the coexistence of Best vitelliform macular dystrophy and pachychoroid neovasculopathy with OCTA images enabling visualization of the neovascular network in a patient with contraindication for fluorescein angiography.
