Optical coherence tomography angiography findings in pediatric patients with graves ophthalmopathy.

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
purposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate peripapillary, macular microvascular structure, and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness profile in children with Graves Ophthalmopathy (GO). MATERIAL AND
methodsThirty-six eyes of 18 children with GO were prospectively compared with 40 eyes of 20-age and sex-matched controls. The severity and activity of the disease were evaluated according to the criteria of the European Group on Graves' Ophthalmopathy (EUGOGO) and Clinical Activity Score (CAS). After complete ophthalmologic and endocrinologic examination, all patients underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) measurements. Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, macular superficial capillary plexus (SCP), deep capillary plexus (DCP), foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, acircularity index (AI) of the FAZ and peripapillary microvascular structure were analyzed.
resultsThe mean age was 12.1 ± 2.4 years in the GO group and 11.2 ± 2.6 years in healthy control group (p = 0.11). Duration of disease was 8.9 ± 4.2 months in the GO group. All patients in GO group had mild and inactive ophthalmopathy. In temporal inferior quadrant, RNFL thickness was significantly thinner in the GO group compared to the control group (p = 0.03). No significant difference was seen between groups both peripapillary and macular microvascular structure (all p > 0.05).
conclusionGO has no effect on optic nerve thickness, peripapillary and macular vascular parameters except inferior temporal RNFL in children.
