Choroidal Neovascularization in a Pediatric Patient With Optic Disc Pit.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
Optic disc pit is a congenital anomaly of the optic disc which is usually asymptomatic, but some patients can develop optic disc pit maculopathy at some stage of life. Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is an abnormal growth of blood vessels into the neurosensory retina from choroidal vessels. Although CNV is not commonly seen in the pediatric age group, there are certain optic nerve head anomalies, like optic disc pit, optic nerve drusen, optic nerve head cavity abnormalities, etc., which are associated with CNV in children. Here, we present a 13-year-old girl who was diagnosed with CNV in association with optic disc pit. She was given intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injections. CNV got improved after anti-VEGF injections, along with significant improvement in vision.
