Early adoption of triamcinolone acetonide suprachoroidal injection for uveitic macular edema: a physician survey.
Article in BMC research notes, 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
objectiveTo obtain physicians' "real-world" perspectives on early experiences with triamcinolone acetonide suprachoroidal injection (SCS-TA) for treatment of patients with uveitic macular edema (UME).
resultsTwelve retina/uveitis specialists in the United States were surveyed about SCS-TA injection procedure and patient outcomes. Survey participants administered ≥ 291 SCS-TA injections to 243 patients with UME with various disease characteristics (etiologies, chronicity, and anatomical subtypes). Commonly reported reasons for SCS-TA adoption included potential for lowering the risk of steroid-associated intraocular pressure elevations versus intravitreal injections or implants (100%), potential for longer duration of action versus intravitreal steroid injections or implants (92%), and desire to use a new delivery modality (83%). Nearly all participants (92%) found injection procedure relatively easy post-training, with most (75%) procedurally comfortable after completing 2-5 injections. 58% of participants indicated that their patients gained 2-3 lines of vision by first follow-up visit, and 92% reported having patients who experienced 100-150 μm or greater reduction in central subfield thickness. Overall, 92% of participants were satisfied with SCS-TA treatment outcomes. Findings from this survey of early adopters of SCS-TA indicate that the suprachoroidal injection technique was easy to learn and resulted in favorable patient outcomes consistent with clinical trial data.
