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 describe composite multicolour (MC) imaging features along with the monocoloured fundus reflectance images in active and resolving stages of post-fever retinitis (PFR).

methodsRetrospective image analysis of cases of PFR who underwent dilated retinal clinical examination followed by optical coherence tomography and MC imaging.

resultsTwenty-five eyes of 18 patients diagnosed with PFR were included. There were 11 males and 7 females. Mean age of patients was 30.63 years. The retinitis lesion appeared bright white on MC image and white mainly on blue and green reflectance images during the active stages of PFR. The lesion appeared dull-grey to greyish white during the resolving stages and as dull-green in resolved cases. The active stages showed the presence of intraretinal/subretinal fluid which appeared as green colour on MC images and less green to normal during resolving stages. Hard exudates were seen as bright yellow- or orange-coloured spots on MC image during the resolving stages of the disease.

conclusionThe different stages of PFR show different colour on multicolour image and different reflectance patterns on individual colour reflectance channels. Hence, multimodal fundus imaging with different wavelength can be helpful for differentiation of activity in PFR.
