Extracellular fluid excess linked to reduced choroidal vascularity index in patients with chronic kidney disease.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Extracellular fluid (ECF) excess is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study (involving 284 patients with CKD) explored the association between choroidal vascularity index (CVI) and ECF excess. We categorised patients into three groups based on extracellular water/total body water: normal, mildly overhydrated, and severely overhydrated. The more severe ECF status was associated with a lower CVI after adjustment (B = - 0.902, p = 0.001). In non-diabetic patients, both vascular luminal (LA, p < 0.001) and stromal areas (SA, p = 0.003) were significantly reduced in patients with severe ECF excess compared to others, whereas diabetic patients showed no significant differences in LA (p = 0.96) and SA (p = 0.86) based on ECF excess status. These findings suggest that ECF status may influence CVI in patients with CKD, underscoring the need for further research to clarify its direct impact on choroidal changes.
