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.

Abstract

purposeTo assess whether early visual acuity letter score change from baseline (ΔVALS) and early spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) measures of center point thickness (CPT) are associated with later ΔVALS in eyes with macular edema due to central or hemiretinal vein occlusion treated with intravitreal aflibercept or bevacizumab.

methodsSecondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial of 362 participants.

resultsConsidered separately at month 3, CPT (categorized as ≤ 300 μm, > 300 μm) and ΔVALS (categorized as < 5, 5-9, ≥ 10) are predictive of ΔVALS at month 6 (aflibercept: P = 0.02 for CPT and P < 0.0001 for ΔVALS; bevacizumab: P = 0.007 for CPT and P < 0.0001 for ΔVALS) and, except for CPT in the bevacizumab arm, also predictive of ΔVALS at month 12 (aflibercept: P = 0.03 for CPT and P < 0.0001 for ΔVALS; bevacizumab: P = 0.18 for CPT and P < 0.0001 for ΔVALS). Month 3 predictors are also associated with average ΔVALS from months 4 to 12 (CPT P = 0.01 in the aflibercept arm, P = 0.02 in the bevacizumab arm; ΔVALS > 10 versus < 5; P < 0.001 for both aflibercept and bevacizumab). When month 3 measures are considered jointly, ΔVALS effect remains significant for average ΔVALS from months 4 to 12 (aflibercept: P = 0.002; bevacizumab: P < 0.0001) but not CPT (aflibercept: P = 0.18; bevacizumab: P = 0.22).

conclusionWhile both month 3 ΔVALS and CPT are predictive of ΔVALS after month 3 through month 12, early ΔVALS has a stronger relationship than CPT with later ΔVALS. SCORE2 registration number is NCT01969708.
