Topographic analysis of retinal and choroidal vascular displacements after macular hole surgery.
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
It has been reported that the retinal vessel and macular region of the retina are displaced after macular hole (MH) surgery. However, there is no detailed information for correlations between retinal and choroidal displacements. We obtained optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and en-face optical coherence tomography (OCT) images from 24 eyes to measure the retinal and choroidal vascular displacement before and after surgery. These images were merged into infrared images using blood vessel patterns. The same vascular bifurcation points were automatically selected for each follow-up image, and the displacements of the bifurcation points were analyzed as a vector unit for prespecified grid regions in a semi-automated fashion. The results showed displacements of the choroidal intermediate vessels and retinal vessels following MH surgery (p = 0.002, p < 0.001). The topographic changes showed inferior, nasal, and centripetal displacement of the retina and inferiorly displaced choroid. The ILM peeling size and basal MH size were significantly associated with the retinal displacement (p < 0.001 and p = 0.010). Additionally, changes in the amount of the choroidal displacement were significantly correlated with that of the retinal displacements (p = 0.002). Clinicians should keep in mind that there might be topographic discrepancies of the displacement between retina and choroid when analyzing them following surgery.
