Structural changes in vortex vein ampullae in eyes with pachychoroid-spectrum disorder.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The purpose of this study is to identify the characteristics of vortex vein ampullae in pachychoroid-spectrum disorders. This case-control study evaluated vortex vein ampullae using Optos Silverstone, an imaging device combining ultra-widefield scanning laser fundus imaging with swept-source optical coherence tomography. Consecutive patients with pachychoroid-spectrum disorders and controls who visited Kagoshima university hospital between January 2022 and December 2023 and underwent vortex vein ampullae evaluations. We compared morphological parameters of supratemporal and infratemporal vortex vein ampullae between eyes with pachychoroid-spectrum disorders and control subjects. We included 40 patients (46 eyes) with pachychoroid-spectrum disorders, and 14 healthy controls (15 eyes). We observed no significant differences in any supratemporal vortex vein ampullae morphological parameters (P ≥ 0.487 for all comparisons). In infratemporal vortex vein ampullae, eyes with pachychoroid-spectrum disorders showed significantly larger mean luminal volume (6.9 × 10
