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

purposeTo investigate the relationship between leakage index on ultra-widefield fluorescence angiography (UWFFA) in different regions of retina and its correlation with cystoid macular edema (CME) in central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) eyes.

methodsPatients with naïve non-ischemic CRVO that had undergone UWFFA were identified. UWFFA images in the late phase were used to analyze the leakage index, which was performed by a semi-automatic method using ImageJ. The UWFFA images were subdivided into four regions by concentric circles centered on the macula for analysis. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) images were used to identify the presence of CME and obtain central macular thickness (CMT).

resultsA total of 57 eyes from 57 CRVO patients were analyzed in this study, including 43 eyes with CME and 14 eyes without CME. The leakage index in panretinal, peri-macular area (PMA), and near-peripheral area (NPA) was significantly different between eyes with CME and eyes without CME. Leakage index of PMA, NPA, mid-peripheral area (MPA), and panretinal area was significantly correlated with CMT, particularly the PMA.

conclusionsThe distribution of leakage is different between patients with CME and patients without CME. The contribution of leakage index in different regions to CME was different, most predominant in PMA and NPA, and the closer to the center of the macula, the stronger the correlation between leakage index and CMT. A linear correlation was observed between CMT and the leakage index of panretinal area and all regions except far-peripheral area (FPA).
