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
Purpose: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been used to monitor papilledema. This study aims to determine which OCT-derived measures of the optic nerve head (ONH) detect resolving papilledema in children faster than standard OCT measures. Methods: Children (≤18 years of age) with papilledema who completed optic nerve SD-OCT pretreatment and had evidence of treatment response on one or more follow-up OCTs within 4 months were included. Standard (mean circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer [cpRNFL] thickness), device-derived (per-quadrant cpRNFL) and custom (ONH height, maximum Bruch's membrane displacement [BMD], ONH volume [ONHV], and BMD volume) OCT measures were calculated. Per-eye generalized estimating equations (GEEs) modelled changes in device-derived and custom measures as a function of mean cpRNFL to identify those measures that resolved faster during early (0-2 months) follow-up. Mean cpRNFL coefficients of greater than 1 indicated faster resolving papilledema. Results: We included 52 eyes of 29 children (mean age, 12.8 years; 72.4% female). In analysis of early follow-up visits (38 eyes from 22 children), nasal cpRNFL and maximum BMD in each quadrant resolved faster than mean cpRNFL (GEE coefficients range, 1.14-3.37). Inferior cpRNFL, superior, nasal, and inferior ONH heights and ONHV resolved slower than mean cpRNFL (GEE coefficients range, 0.67-0.87). Conclusions: Nasal cpRNFL is a promising device-derived OCT measure for the early detection of resolving papilledema in children compared with mean cpRNFL. Maximum BMD, a custom measure, also shows promise, but its calculation has not yet been incorporated into commercial OCT devices. Translational Relevance: This study guides the optimal use of OCT in capturing resolving papilledema in children.
