Using the Thickness Map from Macular Ganglion Cell Analysis to Differentiate Retinal Vein Occlusion from Glaucoma.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeWe hypothesized that the thickness map from macular ganglion cell analysis (GCA) acquired from spectral-domain optical coherence tomography can be used to differentiate retinal vein occlusion (RVO) from glaucoma.
methodsIn this retrospective case control study, 37 patients with resolved RVO and 74 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) were enrolled. Two independent examiners diagnosed patients with RVO or POAG based on the topographic pattern in the GCA thickness map. Inter-observer agreement for a decision between RVO and POAG was assessed using kappa statistics. Diagnostic specificity and accuracy were calculated.
resultsInter-observer agreement was good, with a kappa value of 0.765 (95% confidence interval, 0.634-0.896,
conclusionsAn irregular GCA thickness map represents a simple and convenient differential diagnostic clue to distinguish RVO from POAG.
