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 quantitatively analyze retinal vascular morphological features, such as vascular density, caliber, and tortuosity, in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).

methodsA total of 244 patients with RRD and 400 healthy controls (HC) were included. Retinal fundus images were collected using OPTOS PLC Daytona P200T. Retinal images were divided into RRD and non-RRD regions of interest (ROIs). All visible retinal fundus vessels were then extracted mainly based on edge detection within ROI to form the whole-vascular image. Retinal vasculature parameters, such as vascular density, caliber, and tortuosity, were calculated.

resultsFor the absolute density, the mean rank (MR) value of normal controls was significantly higher than that in non-RRD (

conclusionsThis study showed that RRD affects both the quantity and morphology of retinal vasculature, such as RRD and non-RRD areas. Smaller average and medium vascular diameters and tortuosity values were found in RRD. However, the absolute vascular density, the average and median diameter, and tortuosity values were also reduced in non-RRD although the retina is still attached. This work indicates that RRD may affect the retinal vasculature beyond the detached retina.
