Retinal oximetry with a prototype handheld oximeter during hyperoxia.

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
purposeRetinal oximetry measures oxygen saturation in retinal vessels. With the introduction of a mobile handheld prototype oximeter, this technique will become available for a broader patient population including bedridden patients and newborn babies. The objective is to determine the sensitivity of this handheld oximeter in room air and during isocapnic hyperoxia. A comparison is made between the handheld oximeter and the Oxymap T1.
methodsThirteen young healthy subjects with a mean age of 25 ± 2 years were recruited at the Leiden University Medical Center. Retinal oximetry images were acquired during normoxia and during isocapnic hyperoxia for both the prototype oximeter and the OxymapT1. Isocapnic hyperoxia was induced with the dynamic end-tidal forcing technique. For both oximeters, the oxygen saturation and vessel width were measured with Oxymap Analyzer software. The hyperoxic state was verified with blood gas analysis.
resultsThe mean oxygen saturation measured with the handheld oximeter in arterioles was 91.3% ± 3.9% during normoxia and 94.6% ± 3.9% during hyperoxia (p = 0.001). Oxygen saturation in venules was 56.3% ± 9.8% during normoxia and 82.2 ± 7.4% during hyperoxia (p < 0.001). For the Oxymap T1, the mean oxygen saturation for arterioles was 94.0% ± 2.6% during normoxia and 95.4%±3.2% during hyperoxia (p = 0.004). For the venules, the oxygen saturation was during normoxia 58.9%±3.2% and 84.3 ± 4.0% during hyperoxia (p < 0.001).
conclusionThe handheld retinal oximeter is sensitive to the changes in inhaled oxygen concentration. A small increase in oxygen saturation was measured in the arterioles and a larger increase in the venules. The handheld oximeter gives similar values as the 'gold standard' Oxymap T1 oximeter.
