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 investigate the retinal and choroidal microcirculation changes in celiac disease (CD) patients via optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A).

methodsThis cross-sectional study included 44 pediatric patients with newly diagnosed CD and 44 healthy pediatric subjects. The vascular densities (VD) of the superficial, deep, and choriocapillar plexuses (VDs, VDd, and VDcc, respectively) (%), the superficial and deep foveal avascular zones (FAZs and FAZd) (%), the central macular thickness (CMT) (μm), and the subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) (μm) were measured with swept-source OCT-A in addition to a complete ophthalmological examination.

resultsMean ages of the CD patients and the healthy participants were 12.02 ± 2.9 and 13.6 ± 2.3 years, respectively. The central sectors of the VDs and VDd measurements were found to be significantly higher in the study group compared to the control group (p = 0.006; P = 0.001, respectively), and the temporal and nasal values of the VDcc measurements were significantly lower in the study group than in the control group (p < 0.05 for both values). CMT and FAZ metrics did not differ between the groups (p > 0.05). SFCT was significantly reduced (p = 0.001), and choroidal thinning was more considerable in female CD patients (p = 0.045).

conclusionCD seems to affect macular and choroidal microcirculation. The reduced choriocapillaris plexus parameters and choroidal thickness may provide disease activity information.
