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

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is a vision-threatening complication of diabetes. Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) are approved treatment modalities aimed at regressing neovascularization. Data are lacking about abnormalities in retinal vascular and oxygen metrics before and after combination treatments. A 32-year-old Caucasian male diagnosed with PDR in the right eye was treated by a combination of PRP and multiple anti-VEGF treatments over a 12-month period. The subject underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography, Doppler OCT, and retinal oximetry before treatment and at 12 months, which was 6 months following the last treatment. Measurements of vascular metrics (vessel density [VD] and mean arterial and venous diameters [D
