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

A 37-year-old man experienced two episodes of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) with the onset within a 7-month period, one in each eye. The diagnosis was made based on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), fundus autofluorescence (FAF), and fluorescein angiography. The presence of subretinal neovascularization and polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy were excluded. Each CSCR episode lasted for approximately 6 months and resolved completely after laser photocoagulation (left eye) and photodynamic therapy (right eye). In the right eye, subthreshold micropulse laser treatment and oral eplerenone were initially administered because of a verteporfin shortage, but they were not effective. Final best-corrected visual acuity was 0.8 logMAR in the left eye and "counting fingers" in the right. SD-OCT revealed significant retinal thinning in both eyes despite FAF, showing no major loss of retinal pigment epithelial cells. A significant reduction of ganglion cell complex thickness occurred in the right eye. Acute CSCR can result in significant visual impairment, even when short-lasting.
