ArticleTherapeutic advances in ophthalmology
Optical coherence tomography angiography to assess for retinal vascular changes in Neuro-Sjögren.
Article in Therapeutic advances in ophthalmology. 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
Background: Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease characterized by sicca symptoms and various extraglandular manifestations including vasculitis. Neurological involvement occurs frequently (Neuro-Sjögren) and often mimics immune neuropathies such as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Objectives: We aim to assess relevant differences in vessel density (VD) in Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) in those diseases to use it as an easily available diagnostic tool. Design: Prospective, monocentric pilot-study. Methods: OCTA (Heidelberg Engineering OCT SPECTRALIS) of the superficial vascular plexus, intermediate capillary plexus (ICP) and deep capillary plexus (DCP) of the retina was prospectively performed in Neuro-Sjögren, age-matched CIDP patients ( Results: Significantly lower VD were found for the DCP and ICP in Neuro-Sjögren and CIDP patients compared to healthy controls ( Conclusion: This study found no significant differences in VD or the foveal avascular zone between Neuro-Sjögren and CIDP patients using OCTA, suggesting that inflammatory vascular changes in the retina are uncommon in Neuro-Sjögren patients.
