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

Background: The fast development of swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) and swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) enables both anterior and posterior imaging of the eye. These techniques have evolved from a research tool to an essential clinical imaging modality. Main text: The longer wavelength and faster speed of SS-OCT and SS-OCTA facilitate better visualization of structure and vasculature below pigmented tissue with a larger field of view of the posterior segment and 360-degree visualization of the anterior segment. In the past 10 years, algorithms dealing with OCT and OCTA data also vastly improved the image quality and enabled the automated quantification of OCT- and OCTA-derived metrics. This technology has enriched our current understanding of healthy and diseased eyes. Even though the high cost of the systems currently limited the widespread use of SS-OCT and SS-OCTA at the first beginning, the gap between research and clinic practice got obviously shortened in the past few years. Conclusions: SS-OCT and SS-OCTA will continue to evolve rapidly, contributing to a paradigm shift toward more widespread adoption of new imaging technology in clinical practice.
