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
introductionThe aim of this study was to describe the development of an integrative dataset, combining clinical and optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging data by applying a deep learning (DL) algorithm for automated, objective, and comprehensive quantification of OCT scans in two large real-world datasets of eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). We further report baseline characteristics of the study population, focusing on demographics, clinical parameters, and quantitative retinal morphological features.
methodsThis retrospective study analyzed data from 5,207 eyes of 4,265 nAMD patients treated at two centers in the UK and Israel. Longitudinal clinical data and OCT scans were analyzed using a DL algorithm (NOA™, Notal Ltd.) to quantify retinal fluid volumes and morphological features. Baseline characteristics were compared between the cohorts.
resultsThe dataset included 134,340 visual acuity (VA) measurements, 79,457 OCT scans, and 73,218 anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injections. Median follow-up was 4.54 years (UK) and 3.12 years (Israel). Baseline VA differed significantly between cohorts due to varying treatment criteria. Fluid distribution patterns were similar, with most eyes showing combined intraretinal and subretinal fluid. Age-related trends in fluid volumes were observed. Weak correlations were found between baseline OCT measurements and VA.
conclusionThis study demonstrates the feasibility of integrating large-scale clinical and imaging data for automated analysis in nAMD. The comprehensive baseline characterization provides insights into real-world presentations and lays the groundwork for enabling personalized decision-making and optimizing outcomes based on individual patient profiles and fluid distribution patterns.
