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
Purpose: To evaluate and compare optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) retinal vasculature measurements in healthy, glaucoma suspect (GS), and glaucoma patients. Methods: One hundred fourteen eyes with good quality OCTA pictures were included from 38 healthy, 38 GS, 38 and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) participants. The information on retinal vasculature was summarized as a vessel density map and as vessel density (%), which is the fraction of the flowing vessel area over the total area examined. The superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal quadrants, as well as whole vessel density (wVD) and peripapillary vessel density (ppVD) data taken from the retinal nerve fiber layer, were studied. Global indices of the visual field were correlated with vessel density measurement. Results: Mean vessel density was significantly lower in POAG eyes compared with GSs and healthy eyes (wVD) 45.34% ± 6.64%, 50.06% ± 1.97% and 53.06% ± 2.12%, respectively ( Conclusions: For distinguishing between healthy and glaucoma eyes, OCTA vessel density demonstrated near similar diagnostic accuracy to visual field tests. These findings imply that OCTA measurements reflect damage to tissues important in the pathogenesis of POAG.
