Twelve-year incidence of retinal vein occlusion and its trend in Korea.
Article in Graefe's archive for clinical and experimental ophthalmology = Albrecht von Graefes Archiv fur klinische und experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 estimate the 12-year incidence and trends of clinically diagnosed retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in Korea.
methodsThis is a nationwide population-based retrospective study using the Korean national health claims database from 2002 to 2015. The study consisted of the entire Korean population based on the 2015 Census of Population. We identified patients with incident RVO in 2004-2015. We estimated the crude incidence rates and age- and sex-standardized incidence rates in each 12-year study period. To determine the trend, we also performed joinpoint regression analyses.
resultsWe identified 240,495 incident RVO cases. The average incidence rate was 48.09 (95% confidence interval [CI], 47.92-48.27). Women showed a 1.24 times higher incidence rate (53.18 [95% CI, 52.92-53.44]) compared with men (42.78 [95% CI, 42.55-43.02]), while, among patients aged less than 50 years and those aged 80 years or over, men showed higher incidence rates than did women. The highest incidence of 193.56 (95% CI, 191.06-196.06) was observed in the age group of 75 to 79 years. The joinpoint analysis showed an increasing trend of RVO incidence among patients at the age of 70 years and older (annual percentage change, 2.1; 95% CI, 0.2-4.0; p < 0.01).
conclusionRVO is a disease of the elderly that peaks in the late 70s and occurs more in women than in men. In Korea, RVO incidence increased from 2004 to 2015 among the population aged 70 years or older, while among those aged less than 70 years, no trend was observed in RVO incidence rates.
