En face OCT analysis of Bietti's crystalline dystrophy.

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
Objective: To describe the multimodal imaging features, including en face optical coherence tomography (OCT), of Bietti's crystalline dystrophy (BCD). Methods: Wide field fundus photography, autofluorescence (FAF) imaging, and cross sectional and en face OCT were performed in a case of BCD. The level of the crystals in the retina were analyzed. Results: A 42-year-old patient was referred for retinal evaluation with nyctalopia, photophobia and metamorphopsia. Retinal examination and wide field color fundus photography were remarkable for bilateral crystalline deposits in the posterior pole and midperipheral retina. Wide field FAF showed extensive nummular atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) in the macula and periphery. Spectral-domain (SD) OCT illustrated bilateral chorioretinal atrophy in the macula. En face SD OCT captured the hyperreflective crystals in various retinal layers, depending on the selected segmentation. The patient was diagnosed with BCD and genetic testing confirmed the diagnosis ( Conclusion: In this case report, we describe the multimodal imaging features of Bietti's Crystalline Dystrophy. Wide field FAF illustrated diffuse nummular RPE atrophy in the posterior pole and periphery and en face OCT captured the hyperreflective crystals in different layers of the retina.
