The association of choroidal thickness with rheumatoid factor and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide in rheumatoid arthritis.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2020. 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
purposeTo measure ocular vascular parameters in rheumatoid arthritis patients and compare with those of controls and to evaluate the association of rheumatoid factor and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody with the choroidal thickness.
methodsSuperficial foveal vessel density, superficial and deep foveal avascular zone area, and subfoveal choroidal thickness were measured using the swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography. Multivariate linear regression was used to assess the correlation of subfoveal choroidal thickness with serological markers in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
resultsChoroidal thickness in patients was significantly thinner than that in healthy controls (278.87 ± 59.54 μm vs. 323.94 ± 98.02 μm, p = 0.03). Despite the weak positive correlations between rheumatoid factor/anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide and choroidal thickness, these relationships were not statistically significant (p > 0.05).
conclusionsIn patients with rheumatoid arthritis, subfoveal choroid was thinner than controls. There were similar correlations between choroidal thickness and rheumatoid factor and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody.
