1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: While prognostic models for retinal vein occlusion (RVO) exist, subtype-specific risk prediction tools for central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) remain limited. This study aimed to construct and validate distinct CRVO and BRVO risk stratification nomograms. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed electronic medical records from a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou (January 2010-November 2024). Non-RVO controls were matched 1:4 (CRVO) and 1:2 (BRVO) by sex and year of admission. The final cohorts included 630 patients (126 CRVO cases and 504 controls) and 813 patients (271 BRVO cases and 542 controls). Predictors encompassed clinical histories and laboratory indices. Multivariate regression identified independent risk factors, and model performance was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration plots, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: The CRVO-nom and BRVO-nom highlighted significant predictors, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). Additional risk factors for CRVO included high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), platelet distribution width (PDW), history of diabetes, cerebral infarction, and coronary artery disease (CAD). For BRVO, significant predictors included a history of hypertension, age, and body mass index (BMI). The AUC for CRVO-nom was 0.80 (95% CI: 0.73-0.87) in the training set and 0.77 (95% CI: 0.65-0.86) in the validation set, while BRVO-nom yielded an AUC of 0.95 (95 ​%CI: 0.91-0.97) in the training set and 0.95 (95% CI: 0.89-0.98) in the validation set. Conclusions: CRVO and BRVO exhibit distinct risk profiles. The developed nomograms-CRVO-nom and BRVO-nom-provide subtype-specific risk stratification with robust discrimination and clinical applicability. An online Shiny calculator facilitates real-time risk estimation, enabling targeted prevention for high-risk populations.
