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

Purpose: Swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) was used to detect the presence of macular neovascularization (MNV) in eyes with exudative central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Observations: Case 1 is a 73-year-old man using prednisolone drops with 20/40 vision and a retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) associated with subretinal fluid (SRF) and no clinical signs of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in his left eye. Three months after presentation he underwent SS-OCTA imaging that revealed MNV. He received a series of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections and SS-OCTA imaging showed a decrease in the MNV lesion size with resolution of the SRF. VA improved to 20/25. Case 2 is a 65-year-old man with recent oral steroid use, presenting with 20/20 vision, a PED, SRF, and no evidence of AMD. SS-OCTA imaging at presentation revealed MNV, which worsened on interval SS-OCTA imaging after the patient deferred treatment. Intravitreal Conclusions and importance: SS-OCTA imaging provides a convenient non-invasive strategy for identifying CSCR eyes with MNV without the need for dye-based angiography.
