Structural and Visual Changes in Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion Patients with Retinal Atrophy.
Article in Journal of ophthalmology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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: To study the changes of retinal vascular density (VD), retinal thickness (RT), and their correlations with visual acuity (VA) in branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) patients with retinal atrophy after resolution of macular oedema (MO). Methods: This is a retrospective study consisting of 46 patients diagnosed with BRVO at Beijing Hospital from 2015 to 2019. Patients' 46 affected eyes and 39 fellow eyes were included. The affected eyes were further divided into the atrophy group and the nonatrophy group. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) images obtained when MO completely resolved after treatment with ranibizumab were analyzed. We quantitatively measured foveal avascular zone (FAZ) parameters, the disruption extent of ellipsoid zone (EZ), RT, and VD of superficial vascular complex (SVC), and deep vascular complex (DVC) in central fovea and the minimal-VD quadrant. Paired Results: Compared with nonatrophy eyes, the minimal-VD quadrantal (quadrantal for short) SVC-VD (25.76 ± 4.57% versus 36.21 ± 6.47%, Conclusions: The retinal VD on the affected area correlates well with the corresponding full RT when BRVO-MO completely resolves, suggesting that VD may predict the final RT. Severe decrease in VD may result in retinal atrophy, which may cause VA loss indirectly with the intermediate influencing factor of EZ defects.
