Peripapillary vessel density and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness changes in early diabetes retinopathy.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimTo perform a quantitative analysis of the peripapillary vessel density (VD) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness changes in patients with early stage of diabetic retinopathy (DR).
methodsIn this case-control study, swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) imaging was used to examine diabetic and age-matched healthy subjects. The optic disc HD 6×6 mm
resultsThe cohort consisted of 32 healthy individuals and 72 patients with diabetes (34 eyes with no DR and 38 eyes with mild-moderate NPDR). Peripapillary VD decreased in the mild-moderate NPDR group compared to the control group in most regions (
conclusionThe measurement based on the ONH topographic map may be helpful in detecting functional and structural impairments in DR. The peripapillary VD, CVD and RNFL decrease in early DR, and the RNFL thickness altered in association with the CVD or/and VD in some regions.
