Imageology of internal carotid artery siphon in non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy.

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
aimTo evaluate whether narrowing of internal carotid artery siphon (ICAS) may increase the risk of developing non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION).
methodsTotally 30 consecutive patients who had unilateral NAION and 30 gender-matched control subjects were recruited in the present study. The diameter of ICAS of all the participants were measured using head-and-neck computed tomographic angiography (CTA). Color doppler flow imaging (CDI) was used to measure the haemodynamics parameters of ICAS and short posterior ciliary arteries (SPCAs) in all subjects. Comparison of parameters between the NAION patients and controls as well as between the two sides within the patients were performed. The correlation between the diameter of ICAS and NAION was analyzed.
resultsA comparison of parameters between the affected side of the NAION patients and the controls, including the diameter of ICAS, the resistance index (RI) of ICAS, the blood flow velocities of SPCAs and RI of SPCAs, showed significantly difference (
conclusionNarrowing of ICAS may increase the risk of developing NAION.
