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 report the distinct pattern of retinal perfusion loss captured on optical coherence tomographic angiography (OCTA) in a case of compressive optic neuropathy associated with pituitary adenoma. Observations: A 51-year-old male had bitemporal hemianopia caused by a pituitary adenoma that compressed the optic chiasm. OCTA scans in both eyes showed peripapillary nerve fiber layer plexus defects in the nasal hemispheres and papillomacular corridors. On macular scans, the ganglion cell layer plexus showed papillomacular defects. The perfusion defects corresponded with thinning on structural OCT measurement and loss of sensitivity on visual field tests. Conclusions and importance: Chiasm compression produces a characteristic pattern of perfusion loss that can be recognized OCTA. This knowledge may be useful in the diagnosis and classification of optic neuropathies.
