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

Purpose: To compare indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and swept-source wide-field optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) for the assessment of patients with posterior uveitis. Method: SS-OCTA montage images of 5 x 12 x 12 mm or 2 x 15 x 9 mm, covering ~70-90 degree of the retina of consecutive patients with posterior uveitis were acquired. The choriocapillaries and choroidal slabs were compared to findings on ICGA. Results: Sixty-eight eyes of 41 patients were included (mean age 47.2 ± 20.4 years; 58.5% female). In 23 (34%) lesions were visible on OCTA, but not discernable on ICGA. In turn, out of the 45 eyes with clearly discernable lesions on ICGA, 22 (49%) and 21 (47%) eyes showed no corresponding areas of flow deficit on OCTA in the CC and choroidal slab, respectively. Lesion size strongly correlated among ICGA and OCTA choriocapillaries- (CC) (r = 0.99, Conclusion: SS-wide field OCTA may be a promising tool to assess posterior uveitis patients and may replace ICGA to a certain extent in the future.
