Correlation Between Retinal Vessel Diameters and Uveitis Activity.
Article in Investigative ophthalmology & visual science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Purpose: To assess retinal vein and artery diameters during active and inactive intraocular inflammation in eyes with uveitis. Methods: Color fundus photographs and clinical data of eyes with uveitis collected during two visits (active disease [i.e., T0] and inactive stage [i.e., T1]) were reviewed. The images were semi-automatically analyzed to obtain the central retina vein equivalent (CRVE) and central retina artery equivalent (CRAE). Changes of CRVE and CRAE from T0 to T1 were calculated, and their possible correlation with clinical data, including age, gender, ethnicity, uveitis etiology, and visual acuity, were investigated. Results: Eighty-nine eyes were enrolled in the study. Both CRVE and CRAE reduced from T0 to T1 (P < 0.0001 and P = 0.01, respectively), with active inflammation being able to influence the CRVE and CRAE (P < 0.0001 and P = 0.0004, respectively) after accounting for all other variables. The degree of venular (∆V) and arteriolar (∆A) dilation was influenced only by time (P = 0.03 and P = 0.04, respectively). Best-corrected visual acuity was influenced by time and ethnicity (P = 0.003 and P = 0.0006). Conclusions: CRVE and CRAE are increased in eyes with active intraocular inflammation regardless of the type of uveitis, and they decrease when the inflammation wears off.
