Retinal vessel density and choroidal flow changes in oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis with and without uveitis.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThis cross-sectional optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) study aimed to assess the macular and optic nerve head (ONH) vascular density, foveal avascular zone, and outer retina and choriocapillaris flow in oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (oJIA). STUDY
designProspective.
methodsTwenty-two eyes of 22 oJIA patients with uveitis (oJIA-U), 20 eyes of 20 oJIA patients without uveitis (isolated oJIA), and 26 healthy volunteers of similar ages and sexes were investigated. The superficial capillary plexus (SCP) and deep capillary plexus (DCP), ONH, foveal avascular zone (FAZ) parameters, the flow area of the outer retina, and choriocapillaris were evaluated.
resultsCompared with the control group, both the oJIA-U group and isolated oJIA group showed significantly decreased vessel density of parafovea (p = 0.031 and p = 0.047, respectively) in DCP. Choriocapillaris flow area at 1 mm radius was significantly lower in the oJIA-U group compared to the control group (p = 0.001). Choriocapillaris flow area at 2- and 3-mm radius were significantly lower in the oJIA-U group compared to the control group (p < 0.001, for both) and isolated oJIA-U group compared to the control group (p = 0.008 and p = 0.001, respectively). The VD and thickness parameters of SCP and ONH, FAZ, and outer retina flow area were similar between the groups.
conclusionsoJIA patients with and without uveitis revealed a decreased vessel density in the deep parafoveal region and choriocapillaris flow. Our findings suggest that retinal choroidal microvascular changes could be evident in oJIA-U patients without posterior segment involvement as well as oJIA patients without uveitis.
