Imaging Characteristics of Neovascular and Atrophic Pachychoroidal Spectrum Diseases.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Background: This study qualitatively and quantitatively compared imaging characteristics between neovascular and atrophic pachychoroid spectrum disease (PSD) by optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography (OCTA). Methods: The subtypes of PSD were identified by multi-modality imaging approaches. Subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), choroidal vascular index (CVI), and vascular density of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) were measured. Results: The CVI and SFCT of 174 PSD eyes were 67.6% ± 5.48% and 362.2 ± 131.88 μm, respectively. After adjustment for age, linear regression indicated that SFCT was positively associated with CVI ( Conclusions: Our study highlighted the similarities in SFCT and CVI between neovascular and atrophic PSD, both of which were late stage lesions. Besides, age, SFCT, patched hyper-reflective lesions in choriocapillaris layers, and DLSs were risk factors for CNV in PSD. Our results showed that atrophic PSD is an important change in the late stage of PSD disease, which is helpful for in-depth understanding of the pathological mechanism of PSD and corresponding intervention.
