Choroidal arterial abnormality in central serous chorioretinopathy.

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 evaluate the choroidal arterial abnormality in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).
methodsFifty-two eyes from 52 patients with CSC were retrospectively evaluated. Arterial and venous ultrawide-field indocyanine green angiography were merged after color and transparency adjustments to compare the choroidal arterial and venous vasculature. Specifically, we evaluated whether the choroidal arteries directly fill the pachyvessel without interconnection of choriocapillaris (arterial pachyvessel; aPV). Then, the clinical characteristics of patients with and without arterial pachyvessel were compared.
resultsPachyvessel under subretinal fluid was detected in 47 of 52 eyes (90.4%). An arterial pachyvessel was detected in eight of 52 eyes (15.4%). Of those eight eyes with arterial pachyvessel, seven (87.5%) showed sustained staining through the venous phase, suggesting they are arteriovenous shunt, while one eye (12.5%) showed diminished fluorescence in the venous phase, suggesting this pachyvessel was purely an artery. Patients with arterial pachyvessel experienced more CSC recurrences (non-aPV group: 2.09 ± 1.44 times vs. aPV group: 3.25 ± 1.28 times; p = 0.039) and pachychoroid neovasculopathy (PNV) development (non-aPV group: 2.3% vs. aPV group: 37.5%, p = 0.009).
conclusionThe presence of arterial pachyvessel in eyes with CSC may represent choroidal circulatory imbalance and focal shear stress to Bruch's membrane, leading to a chronic nature and PNV development.
