Efficacy and Safety of Intravitreal Brolucizumab in Chronic Central Serous Chorioretinopathy: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Clinical ophthalmology (Auckland, N.Z.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Purpose: To evaluate the anatomical and functional outcomes and treatment burden of intravitreal brolucizumab in chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (cCSCR) over 12 months in a real-world setting. Patients and Methods: In this retrospective, single-center cohort, 29 eyes with cCSCR received pro re nata intravitreal brolucizumab. Baseline OCT angiography excluded macular neovascularization. Patients were seen monthly for three months, then as needed through month 12. At each visit, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central retinal thickness (CRT), and presence of SRF, intraretinal fluid (IRF), and pigment epithelium detachment (PED; including PED height) were recorded. Total injections per eye were tallied. Results: Twenty-nine eyes (mean age 55.2±11.0 years; 72% male) with cCSCR received 1.72 ± 0.62 intravitreal brolucizumab injections over 12 months. Vision improved from BCVA 0.59 ± 0.23 logMAR at baseline to 0.46 ± 0.22 at one month ( Conclusion: Intravitreal brolucizumab provided significant and sustained visual and anatomical improvements in cCSCR with a low injection burden over 12 months. Given the off‑label use and absence of a control group, findings should be interpreted cautiously and confirmed in prospective controlled studies.
