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

purposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between short-wavelength autofluorescence (SWAF) and infrared autofluorescence (IRAF) patterns in pachychoroid neovasculopathy (PNV) with serous retinal detachment (SRD).

methodsThis study used an observational case series of 62 eyes of 58 consecutive patients diagnosed with symptomatic PNV from January 2019 and October 2021 at a single institution. SWAF and IRAF patterns were analyzed with disease chronicity, and autofluorescence changes in macular neovascularization (MNV) were assessed in two images.

resultsSWAF patterns and the mean duration of symptoms were as follows: blocked (15 eyes, 24%), 1.0 months; mottled (8 eyes, 13%), 2.8 months; hyper (24 eyes, 39%), 5.0 months; hyper/hypo (10 eyes, 16%), 7.0 months; descending tract (5 eyes, 8%), 12.0 months (

conclusionsSWAF and IRAF show multiple patterns and are related to disease chronicity in symptomatic PNV. IRAF could be helpful in detecting the lesion of MNV.
