Clinical characteristics of recurrent non-arteritic retinal artery occlusion.
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
objectivesTo investigate the recurrent non-arteritic retinal artery occlusion (RAO) in the same or opposite eye.
methodsWe searched the RAO registry at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital and included patients with recurrent RAO in the present study. Ophthalmic and systemic features were analysed to identify risk factors and visual outcomes.
resultsOf the 850 patients in the non-arteritic RAO cohort, 11 (1.3%) experienced a second RAO recurrence, either in the same (5 patients; 0.6%) or opposite (6 patients; 0.7%) eye. The same eye group experienced an earlier recurrence (1-2 months, median 1 month) than the opposite eye group, where the time to recurrence was notably longer (8-66 months, median 22 months). Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the same eye group decreased after the recurrence of RAO. In the same eye group, initial BCVA ranged from 20/200 to counting fingers (CF), while BCVA during RAO recurrence ranged from CF to hand motion. When RAO recurred in the opposite eye, the reduction in visual acuity was less severe than the reduction of the initial episode: initial episode ranged from 20/400 to light perception and recurrent episode ranged from 20/25 to 20/400. Patients exhibited varying degrees of carotid (81.8%) and cerebral (9.1%) artery occlusions. Additionally, one patient in each group (total 2 patients, 18.2%) experienced a stroke 6 months after RAO recurrence.
conclusionsSince the RAO recurrences could lead to devastating visual impairment, it is essential to emphasise the importance of risk factor screening to patients while collaborating with neurologists and cardiologists.
