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

backgroundTo evaluate the longitudinal changes on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in retinal vein occlusion (RVO).

methodsRetrospective study of patients with RVO treated with intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) for macular edema. Foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, vessel density (VD), vessel length density (VLD), and adjusted flow index (AFI) were calculated. The unaffected eye of each participant was used as a control.

resultsTwelve RVO eyes were included, receiving 6 ± 3 anti-VEGF injections over a follow-up of 10.4 ± 3.1 months. Compared to fellow eyes, RVO eyes had lower VD and VLD at inclusion (

conclusionsOCTA parameters remained stable with sustained anti-VEGF treatment in RVO, while changes in the FAZ area may suggest capillary remodeling after RVO.
