Comparing reactivation and retreatment for three doses of bevacizumab in type 1 retinopathy of prematurity.
Article in Journal of AAPOS : the official publication of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, 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
purposeTo determine timing and rates of reactivation and retreatment of type 1 retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) after treatment with either 0.125 mg, 0.250 mg, or 0.500 mg of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB).
methodsRetrospective data, including demographic information, past medical history, and ROP characteristics were analyzed for babies with type 1 ROP treated with IVB at Riley Hospital for Children for the perioed 2014-2021.
resultsA total of 84 patients met inclusion criteria: 29 patients received 0.125 mg of IVB; 39, 0.250 mg; and 16, 0.500 mg. Of the 84, 67 (80%) had additional laser treatment because of late reactivation (n = 52) or persistent avascular retina (PAR) (n = 15). Subsequent laser treatment was more common with lower doses: 0.125 mg (n = 27 [93%]); 0.250 mg (n = 31 [80%]); 0.500 mg (n = 9 [57%]) (P = 0.012). There was no difference between groups with regard to reason for subsequent laser treatment (reactivation vs PAR). The 0.125 mg group required retreatment because of reactivation 3.8 weeks sooner than the other dosing groups (P = 0.047).
conclusionsThe outcomes comparing three doses of IVB for severe ROP showed a difference in the timing of secondary treatment, with the lower dosing group requiring laser for reactivation earlier.
