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

purposeThis study aims to evaluate choroidal vascular alterations in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) using ultra-widefield (UWF) indocyanine green angiography (ICGA).

methodsThis was a retrospective case-control study conducted at a single tertiary eye center. In total, 36 eyes in patients with either unilateral (24 patients) or bilateral (six patients) treatment-naïve CSC and 30 eyes in 24 age-matched controls were evaluated. The number of quadrants with vortex vein engorgement on UWF ICGA was evaluated. Dilated choroidal vessels affecting the macula were regarded as extended vortex vein engorgement. Choroidal vascular hyperpermeability (CVH) area on late-phase ICGA was quantified using stereographic projection. The parameters were compared with clinical and optical coherence tomographic findings.

resultsEyes with CSC had larger CVH area, thicker choroid, and more quadrants with vortex vein engorgement and extended vortex vein engorgement compared with control eyes (all P < 0.001). In patients with unilateral CSC, affected eyes had larger CVH area, thicker choroid, and more extended vortex vein engorgements compared with unaffected fellow eyes (all P < 0.001), but vortex vein engorgement did not significantly differ. CVH was significantly correlated with extended vortex vein engorgement (P < 0.001) and subfoveal choroidal thickness (P = 0.007).

conclusionsThe increased number and binocular symmetry of engorged vortex veins suggest an anatomical predisposition for CSC. CVH area and extended vortex vein engorgement were indicators of choroidal outflow congestion. These parameters may serve as diagnostic clues or predictors of disease development in eyes with CSC.
