Selective retina therapy with real-time feedback-controlled technology in central serous chorioretinopathy: a 24-month follow-up real-world prospective study.
Article in BMJ open ophthalmology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveAlthough central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) treatment using selective retinal therapy (SRT) has presented favourable outcomes, no long-term studies with a real-world clinical practice regimen have been conducted. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We performed a long-term assessment of CSC treatment using SRT with real-time feedback (RTF) technology. 50 patients (53 eyes) with CSC and more than a 1-month symptom duration were recruited and treated with SRT using a 1.7 µs pulse width, 527 nm neodymium-doped yttrium lithium fluoride (Nd:YLF) laser equipped with an RTF system.
resultsAfter 6 months of treatment, complete subretinal fluid resolution was achieved in 62% of the eyes. The mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA; logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution, mean±SD) improved slightly from 0.15±0.18 at baseline to 0.12±0.21 at 6 months (p=0.062). The central retinal thickness (CRT; mean±SD) was reduced significantly from 350.6±100.1 µm at baseline to 268.2±70.6 µm at 6 months (p<0.001). Long-term follow-up revealed significant improvements in BCVA, from 9 months until 24 months, and in CRT, from 1 month until 24 months. No treatment-related adverse events were observed during the 24-month follow-up period.
conclusionOur results suggest that SRT with RTF technology is a long-term safe treatment with anatomical improvement for patients with CSC.
