The Role of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in the Evaluation of Chiasmal and Retrochiasmal Compression.

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
The compression of the visual pathway is associated with structural retinal changes due to retrograde neurodegeneration. It was brought into question whether visual pathway compression is also associated with retinal vascular changes as assessed by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). The objective of this review is to discuss the role of OCT-A in the evaluation of patients with tumours of the sellar, parasellar, and retrochiasmal regions. The reported OCT-A parameters were the vessel densities of radial peripapillary capillary network, macular superficial vascular plexus and/or macular deep vascular complex. Optic nerve and macular OCT-A parameters were impaired in patients versus controls. These changes were associated with altered structural OCT parameters and visual field defects. OCT-A could be considered a marker of neurodegeneration in addition to structural OCT, and it has the potential to become a visual prognostic tool in patients with visual pathway compression.
