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

backgroundOptical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a new and reliable machine used to evaluate retinal structure and macular perfusion in children. The use of OCTA under bad condition such as high altitude, low atmospheric oxygen, and low humidity, in children is rarely.

aimTo quantify the macular micro-vasculature in healthy children of various ages using OCTA in Qamdo.

methodsDesign: Prospective cross-sectional, school-based study. Three hundred and forty-seven normal students from 9 schools in 4 different areas in Qamdo were included. OCTA was performed on a 3 mm × 3 mm area centered on the macular region and macular cube 512 × 128 showed details in macular. Early treatment of diabetic retinopathy study Vessel Flow Density (VD) of the macular central vascular plexus density (CVD), inner vascular plexus density (IVD), full vascular plexus density (FVD), and the size of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) were measured. All these results corrected by t/s = 3.382 × 0.01306 × (axial length-1.82). The differences were compared among various ages, sexes and living environments.

resultsThe mean FAZ area in all eyes was 0.27 mm

conclusionOCTA can use to evaluate macular perfusion in children. Our data bridge the gap between structural OCT and perfusion density in children in high altitude. Even though these were not a longitudinal study, it may provide us with hints about retina development during puberty and clinical implications of OCTA in children.
