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

backgroundTo identify the macular neovascularization (MNV) features in exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients who exhibited residual fluid after receiving three loading doses of aflibercept.

methodsPatients were classified into two groups: Group 1, which did not exhibit intraretinal fluid (IRF) and subretinal fluid (SRF), and Group 2, which did exhibit IRF and/or SRF. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) features were assessed and compared between the groups.

resultsA total of 101 eyes were enrolled; 65 for Group 1 and 36 for Group 2. No significant differences were found in baseline MNV size (2.94 ± 2.51 µm

conclusionsAlthough responding to treatment, the presence of loops and peripheral arcades in exudative AMD patients may contribute to residual fluid following the three loading doses of aflibercept. The peripheral arcade, in particular, may play a more significant role in the presence of residual fluid.
