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 a case of monocular retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)-like vasculopathy without oxygen supplementation in the dog.

methodsFundus photographs (RetCam), spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (sdOCT), confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (cSLO), and fluorescein angiography (FA), as well as postmortem histology and immunohistochemistry (Collagen IV and anti-vWF antibodies), were carried out to characterize the vascular abnormalities.

resultsOphthalmic examination showed peripheral and mid-temporal avascular areas in the tapetal region, neovascularization and abnormally dilated and tortuous retinal vessels in the left eye. sdOCT demonstrated not only cross-sectional views of preretinal fibrovascular proliferation but also extensive proliferation extraretinally into the vitreous. FA emphasized demarcation of vascular and avascular zones with neovascular tufts "popcorns." Histology and immunohistochemistry confirmed presence of abnormally dilated vessels and the intravitreal blood vessels.

conclusionsROP is a disease of abnormally developed retinal vascularization associated with oxygen supplementation therapy, potentially causing blindness in premature infants. Although the mechanism of ROP-like vasculopathy in our case is unclear, it is important to appreciate that the abnormal vascular pattern seen in ROP in premature infants can occur in canines without oxygen administration.
