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

purposeThe clinical diagnosis of ocular surface squamous neoplasia is challenging, mostly requiring excisional biopsy. Human tumor angiogenesis is characterized by abnormal vessel architecture and transvascular hyperpermeability. This case report describes features of fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography in a case of conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia. OBSERVATIONS: Color photography, optical coherence tomography, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography were performed in a patient with suspected conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia before excisional biopsy and histologic confirmation of clinical diagnosis. Fluorescein dye showed extensive early extravascular dye leakage within the limits of the lesion. Indocyanine green dye displayed corneal terminal vessel bulbs with early leakage after 70 seconds and showed diffuse intralesional dye leakage after 7 minutes.

conclusionsIncreased fluorescein and early indocyanine green dye leakage can be used to confirm active angiogenesis already in early stages of dysplastic ocular surface squamous neoplasia. Late leakage of indocyanine green dye may be due to chronic transvascular hyperpermeability within intrinsic tumor vessels. The leakage behaviour of intravenous dyes has the potential to serve as a diagnostic indicator of active growth in dysplastic ocular surface neoplastic lesions.
