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: The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the retinal and choroidal vasculature between healthy subjects and the fellow eyes of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Methods: We recruited patients with unilateral RRD and healthy controls. An ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (UWF-SS-OCTA) was applied to measure the retinal and choroidal vessel densities across the entire image and nine quadrants. Additionally, we used ultra-widefield scanning light ophthalmoscopy (UWF-SLO) to capture the fundus lesions in the fellow eye of the patients with RRD. Results: The study recruited 53 healthy subjects and 42 patients with unilateral RRD. The fellow-eye RRD group had a significantly larger foveal avascular zone (FAZ; P = 0.006) and reduced choroidal thickness (CT) compared to the control group. Furthermore, the fellow-eye RRD group showed significantly lower retinal vessel densities in superficial vascular plexus (SVP; P = 0.024), full retinal layer (P = 0.019), and choroidal parameters, including choroidal vascularity volume (CVV; P = 0.016), choroidal vascularity index (CVI; P = 0.030), and choroidal stromal volume (CSV; P = 0.031). Pigmentary lesions (28.6%), lattice degeneration (16.7%), and retinal hole (4.8%) were found by SLO images. Some cases did not reveal morphological abnormalities in the retina, but choroidal vessel loss was evident on OCTA. Conclusions: These results suggest the early abnormalities in retinal and choroidal blood perfusion in the fellow-eye RRD group, which may provide potential pathophysiology and clinical applications. Translational Relevance: The study underscores the fundus alterations in the fellow eyes of patients with RRD, as detected by OCTA and UWF-SLO.
