Guidelines for Imaging the Choriocapillaris Using OCT Angiography.
Review in American journal of ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 78 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 provide guidance on how to appropriately quantitate various choriocapillaris (CC) parameters with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
designEvidence-based perspective.
methodsReview of literature and experience of authors.
resultsAccurate and reliable quantification of CC using OCTA requires that CC can be visualized and that the measurements of various CC parameters are validated. For accurate visualization, the selected CC slab must be physiologically sound, must produce images consistent with histology, and must yield qualitatively similar images when viewing repeats of the same scan or scans of different sizes. For accurate quantification, the measured intercapillary distances (ICDs) should be consistent with known measurements using histology and adaptive optics and/or OCTA, the selected CC parameters must be physiologically and physically meaningful based on the resolution of the instrument and the density of the scans, the selected algorithm for CC binarization must be appropriate and generate meaningful results, and the CC measurements calculated from multiple scans of the same and different sizes should be quantitatively similar. If the Phansalkar local thresholding method is used, then its parameters must be optimized for CC based on the OCTA instrument and scan patterns used. It is recommended that the window radius used in the Phansalkar method should be related to the expected average ICD in normal eyes.
conclusionsQuantitative analysis of CC using commercially available OCTA instruments is complicated, and researchers need to tailor their strategies based on the instrument, scan patterns, anatomy, and thresholding strategies to achieve accurate and reliable measurements.
