Effect of baseline fluid localization on visual acuity and prognosis in type 1 macular neovascularization treated with anti-VEGF.

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 assess the prognostic value of subretinal (SRF) and intraretinal fluid (IRF) localizations in type 1 macular neovascularization (MNV) due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). SUBJECTS: Eyes were prospectively treated with anti-vascular epithelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) intravitreal injections (IVT) according to a Pro-Re-Nata (PRN) or Treat and Extend (TAE) regimen during 24 months. A total of 211 eyes with treatment-naïve type 1 MNV secondary to AMD were consecutively included. Eyes were divided between 2 groups according to the fluid localization: presence of SRF alone (SRF group), or presence of IRF associated or not with SRF (IRF ± SRF group).
resultsAt baseline the mean BCVA was 66.2 letters. SRF was present in 94.8% of eyes, IRF in 30.8%, and both in 25.6%. Data were available for 201 eyes at 12 months, and 157 eyes at 24 months. The presence of IRF at baseline was associated with lower baseline BCVA and significantly lower BCVA at 12 months (p < 0.001) and 24 months (p < 0.001). Eyes with SRF alone displayed better visual outcomes (BCVA at month 12, SRF = 74.3 letters, IRF ± SRF = 56.9 letters). In the presence of baseline IRF, fibrosis (p = 0.03) and atrophy (p < 0.001) were more frequently found at 24 months. In a multivariate model, the presence of baseline IRF was significantly associated with lower BCVA at month 12 but not at month 24.
conclusionIn type 1 MNV, the presence of baseline IRF was associated with worse visual outcomes compared to SRF alone, and more frequent atrophy and fibrosis.
