Role of Plasma Angiopoietin-1 and VEGF Levels as Potential Biomarkers in Chronic Central Serous Chorioretinopathy with Macular Neovascularization.

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
To evaluate the plasma levels of angiopoietin-1 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and their association with macular neovascularization (MNV) in patients with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (cCSC). Correlations between plasma cytokine levels, CSC duration, and mean choroidal thickness (CT) were also investigated. Of the 59 patients with cCSC, 10 patients with MNV secondary to cCSC and 10 patients with cCSC without MNV were enrolled in the study. The control group included 15 healthy volunteers matched for age, sex, smoking status, and comorbidities. Chronic CSC was diagnosed based on typical findings on swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT), fundus fluorescein angiography, and indocyanine green angiography. Additionally, all patients underwent OCT angiography to help detect MNV. Plasma angiopoietin-1 and VEGF levels were assessed using multiplex immunoassay. The plasma angiopoietin-1 levels differed between the 3 groups (
