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

Objectives: To evaluate treatment-naïve patients with neovascular-exudative age-related macular degeneration (eARMD) in one eye and early-/intermediate-stage nonexudative ARMD (neARMD) in the fellow eye by optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCTA). Methods: A total of 70 eyes of 35 patients (17 females) with first diagnosis of eARMD in one eye and early/intermediate-stage neARMD in the fellow eye were included in this study. The eARMD diagnosis was confirmed by fluorescein angiography. Each subject underwent OCTA imaging by RTVue XR Avanti OCT device. Capillary vessel density (VD) of superficial (SCP) and deep (DCP) retinal capillary plexuses and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) parameters were measured. Results: The mean age was 72.0±8.9 years (range 59-87). The mean visual acuity was 0.7±0.5 logMar for the eARMD eyes and 0.4±0.3 logMar for the fellow eyes (p=0.012). Nineteen patients (54.3%) had occult choroidal neovascularization (CNV), and 16 patients (45.7%) had classical CNV. The mean FAZ area was measured 0.30 ± 0.11 mm Conclusion: Potential retinal vascular alterations will be important in ARMD pathogenesis.
