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

The vascular system is affected by systemic conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. The choroid is an important vascular tissue surrounding the sensory retina. However, the relationship between the choroid and systemic factors in patients with diabetes has rarely been investigated. Here, we assessed the correlation of renal profiles with choroidal vasculature in eyes with diabetic retinopathy (DR) using a retrospective study design. The study included 131 patients with diabetes who underwent swept-source optical coherence tomography and routine medical work-up within a 4-week period between 1 February 2016 and 30 October 2018. Consecutive patients with treatment-naïve DR who did not receive any subsequent treatment were included. The distribution of patients according to the DR stage was as follows: no DR, 32 patients; mild-to-moderate non-proliferative DR (NPDR), 33 patients; severe NPDR, 34 patients; and treatment-naïve proliferative DR, 32 patients. Multivariate regression analyses showed that the choroidal vascularity index (CVI) of naïve eyes with DR was negatively correlated with age (
