Choroidal vascularity index and choriocapillary changes in retinal vein occlusions.
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 30 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 evaluate the changes in the choroidal structure in the setting of retinal vein occlusion (RVO).
methodsChanges in the structure of the choroid were studied in sixty-four eyes with unilateral central or branch RVO using optical coherence tomography (OCT) with enhanced depth imaging and OCT-angiography (OCT-A). Choroidal vascularity index (CVI), Haller layer/choroidal thickness (H/C) ratio, and choriocapillaris flow density were used to compare the structural characteristics of the choroid with fellow eyes and the eyes of thirty-four age-, gender-, and systemic co-morbidity-matched controls.
resultsEyes with RVO had a higher H/C ratio but a lower choriocapillaris flow density compared to both fellow and control eyes (p < 0.001). CVI was significantly lower in both eyes of the patients with RVO compared with control eyes (p < 0.05) with a more robust decrease in the eye that had developed RVO (p < 0.001). The H/C ratio (r = 0.303 p < 0.001), CVI (r = - 0.268, p = 0.001), and choriocapillaris flow density (r = - 0.237, p = 0.003) were all correlated with logMAR visual acuity, and other clinical features.
conclusionRetinal vein occlusions alter the hemodynamic properties of the choroid leading to structural changes. These changes may be secondary to a compensatory mechanism to supply oxygen to hypoxic retina.
