Functional OCT reveals anisotropic changes of retinal flicker-evoked vasodilation.
Article in Optics letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of anisotropic property of retinal biomechanics on vasodilation measurement. A custom-built optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used for time-lapse imaging of flicker stimulation-evoked vessel lumen changes in mouse retinas. A comparative analysis revealed significantly larger (18.21%) lumen dilation in the axial direction compared to the lateral (10.77%) direction. The axial lumen dilation predominantly resulted from the top vessel wall movement toward the vitreous direction, whereas the bottom vessel wall remained stable. This observation indicates that the traditional vasodilation measurement in the lateral direction may result in an underestimated value.
