Uveal vascular bed in health and disease: uveal vascular bed anatomy. Paper 1 of 2.
Review in Eye (London, England), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The uveal vascular bed is the largest vascular system in the eye and has a role in supplying almost every tissue in the eyeball. This makes it the most important ocular vascular system. This is an up-to-date review of the literature of the entire uveal vascular bed in health based on detailed anatomy of the posterior ciliary arteries (PCAs), anterior ciliary arteries, cilioretinal arteries, and vortex veins. Although postmortem injection cast preparations gave us useful information on the morphology of the choroidal vascular bed; in vivo studies showed that they misled us for centuries about the in vivo situation. According to the postmortem cast studies, the uveal vascular bed has no segmental distribution, the uveal vessels anastomose freely with one another, there are inter-arterial and arteriovenous anastomoses in the choroid, and the choriocapillaris form a freely communicating and an uninterrupted vascular bed in the entire choroid.
