Characteristics and Classification of Choroidal Caverns in Patients with Various Retinal and Chorioretinal Diseases.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeTo investigate the features of choroidal caverns in diverse retinal diseases with swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT).
methodsSubjects with normal eyes, retinitis pigmentosa (RP), wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD), acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), or chronic CSC were enrolled. The characteristics of choroidal caverns were evaluated with SS-OCT. The prevalence of choroidal caverns in retinal diseases and the correlations between the number, width and depth of choroidal caverns with the thickness of choroid were analyzed.
resultsAmong 315 eyes of 220 subjects, choroidal caverns were found in 110 eyes (34.9%). Choroidal caverns were divided into two categories based on their location and size. Type I was small and usually lobulated, presented in the choroidal capillary and Sattler's layers. Type II was larger, usually isolated, and presented in the Sattler's and Haller's layers. The prevalence of type I in subjects with normal eyes, RP, wAMD, acute CSC, or chronic CSC was 17.4%, 19.6%, 1.6%, 32.8%, and 85.2%, respectively, while that of type II was 0%, 0%, 21.3%, 13.8%, and 53.7%, respectively. The number, width, and thickness of type II choroidal caverns correlated positively with macular choroidal thickness.
conclusionsChoroidal caverns could be divided into two categories. Type II choroidal caverns appeared associated with the pachychoroid spectrum and RPE atrophic diseases.
