Quantitative Assessment of Choroidal Parameters in Patients with Various Types of Diabetic Macular Oedema: A Single-Centre Cross-Sectional Analysis.
Article in Biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Diabetic macular oedema (DME) is an outcome of multiple, complex and not fully understood mechanisms. The aim of this study was to define the role of choroidopathy in the pathogenesis of various DME types. The retrospective cross-sectional single-centre study included 140 eyes from 105 patients with DME and 76 eyes from 52 non-diabetic controls. The eyes were stratified according to the type of DME: cystoid, diffuse, and with subretinal fluid. Optical coherence tomography-based choroidal parameters: thickness, volume, choroidal vascularity index (CVI), luminal area (LA), stromal area (SA), and total choroidal area (TCA) were compared. Eyes with DME, regardless of the type thereof, had lower choroidal thickness, volume, and CVI values than the controls. Further, the eyes with some specific DME types differed significantly from the controls in terms of LA and SA. While the eyes with various DME types did not differ significantly in terms of their choroidal thickness, volume and CVI, some between-group differences were found in LA, SA and TCA. Diabetic choroidopathy seems to play a role in the development of DME but is less likely involved in the pathogenesis of specific types thereof.
