Ocular findings in patients with acquired ATTRv amyloidosis following domino liver transplantation.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo investigate the presence of amyloidosis-related ocular findings in patients who received domino liver transplantation from ATTRv amyloidosis donors.
methodsWe reviewed the ocular findings in patients who had previously undergone domino liver transplantation and received ophthalmologic examinations between January 2009 and March 2023. The presence of amyloidosis-related ocular findings was retrospectively assessed by two ophthalmologists.
resultsDuring the study period, a total of 7 patients with 14 eyes were examined. All patients were considered as acquired ATTRv amyloidosis. The mean age at the final visit was 64.6±8.4 years (52-75 years), and the mean time since domino liver transplantation was 167.6±76.2 months (69-257 months). The two evaluators' assessments for amyloidosis-related ocular findings were completely identical. No amyloid fibril deposition was observed in the pupil, lens, or vitreous. Five patients (10 eyes) had a Schirmer test result of 5mm or less than 5 mm, and four patients with a total of 8 eyes underwent fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography, and no evidence of retinal amyloid angiopathy was found on fluorescein angiography. However, three patients with 6 eyes showed choroidal amyloid angiopathy on indocyanine green angiography.
conclusionWhile cases of choroidal amyloid angiopathy were observed, serious amyloidosis-related ocular complications such as vitreous opacity or secondary glaucoma did not occur even in the long term after domino liver transplantation.
