1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundOcular fundus angiography is an indispensable component of the tests utilized for fundus diseases. Dynamic angiography results can provide additional information; however, many difficulties remain. In this study, we introduce a modified method, time-lapse angiography (TLA), to dynamically present imaging results.

methodsTLA, combining time-lapse photography and fundus angiography (using Heidelberg retina angiography II, Germany), includes pre-photographing and post- photosynthesis and ultimately produces a video that is approximately 15 s in length.

resultsFour typical videos in the article showed the characteristics of TLA, including a short and rapid but continuous and integral presentation, highly valid information, high definition, etc.

conclusionsTLA is beneficial for the diagnosis of diseases and the assessment of progression and is convenient for peer communication, patient interpretation, and student education. The application of time-lapse photography in ocular fundus angiography is a monumental and innovative attempt.
