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

Purpose: We aimed to observe longitudinal changes in retinal blood flow (RBF) and structural transformations in capillaries using Doppler optical coherence tomography (DOCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in a feline retinal blood occlusion (RVO) model. Methods: RVO was induced by argon green laser photocoagulation (PC) in six eyes of six cats. RBF was measured at a first-order retinal artery and vein by a DOCT flowmeter, and structural changes in the capillaries around the occluded vessels (12 × 12 and 3 × 3 mm) were assessed by OCTA before (at baseline); immediately after PC; and on days 1, 4, 7, and 14 thereafter. Systemic and ocular parameters were monitored during the observation period. Results: There were no significant differences in any systemic or ocular parameters before and after PC. Arterial RBF increased significantly on day 1 (160.6 ± 8.6% vs. baseline, P < 0.001) and decreased below baseline after day 1 through 14. Venous RBF decreased immediately after PC (17.4 ± 9.6% vs. baseline, P = 0.001) and then gradually increased afterwards, but did not return to baseline. OCTA showed dilatation of retinal venules immediately after PC to day 1. Collateral vessels began to form on day 4, had matured by day 7, and were pruned on day 14, which formed as mature as normal retinal venule diameters. Conclusions: With increasing arterial RBF within 1 day after inducing RVO, venules gradually expanded to form collateral vessels, suggesting that collateral vessels originate from existing capillary networks, not neovascularization.
