Photoreceptor outer segment layer thinning as a biomarker in acute central serous chorioretinopathy.
Article in Therapeutic advances in ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: The photoreceptor outer segment (PROS) layer demonstrates focal thinning above the fluorescein leakage in acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC); however, the nature of this phenomenon is not known. Objectives: To study the relationship between the PROS layer and thickness of the outer retinal layers above the fluorescein leakage in newly diagnosed acute CSC. Design: Single-center retrospective study. Methods: All participants received multimodal imaging, including fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography. Thickness of PROS, outer nuclear layer (ONL), and ONL-outer plexiform layer (OPL) complex was measured above the leakage and outside the leakage within the area of neurosensory detachment. The number of intraretinal hyperreflective foci of the outer retina was counted. The correlation between PROS thickness and ONL, OPL-ONL complex thickness, and the number of intraretinal hyperreflective foci was calculated. Results: Fifty eyes of 48 patients (38 males and 10 females, 43.8 ± 10.6 years) with a mean symptom duration of 1.4 ± 1.3 months were included. PROS thickness above the fluorescein leakage showed a statistically significant correlation with ONL thickness, OPL-ONL complex thickness, and the number of hyperreflective foci in the outer retina, 0.57, 0.60, and -0.46, respectively ( Conclusion: PROS thinning above the fluorescein leakage in acute CSC is associated with thinning of the outer retinal layers and reveals mild outer retinal atrophy. The absence of PROS thinning predicts faster resolution of CSC.
