Choroidal hemangioma in Sturge-Weber syndrome elucidated by ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography.

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
backgroundSturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare congenital phacomatosis disorder. choroidal hemangioma (CH) is one of the most common ocular manifestations. The advancements in swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) provide us a comprehensive view of the CH. Here we present a case of CH in SWS and emphasize the utility of ultra-widefield SS-OCTA imaging for detection of the lesion. CASE PRESENTATION: A 59-year-old female complained of vision loss in her right eye received multimodal ophthalmological imaging, including ultra-widefield SS-OCTA. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) of the right eye revealed a thickened subfoveal choroid. The ultra-widefield SS-OCTA image, capturing a 130ฒ view of the fundus, identified a distinct, large-sized hemangioma. Taking into account the presence of a port-wine stain on the eyelid and distention of conjunctival vessels, the patient was ultimately diagnosed with Sturge-Weber syndrome.
conclusionsUltra-widefield SS-OCTA is a noninvasive imaging technique that enables comprehensive visualization of the retinal microstructure and vascular architecture across a wide expanse of the fundus. This advanced modality proves to be highly valuable in the diagnosis of asymptomatic choroidal hemangiomas and monitoring the progression of these lesions over time.
