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: To investigate the correlation between macular retinal and choroidal structural characteristics and refractive status in preschool-aged children with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), based on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), and to analyze the relationship between serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels and microcirculatory alterations. Methods: 310 preterm children with a history of ROP who were followed up at our hospital between January 2022 and June 2024 were included. According to the International Classification of Retinopathy of Prematurity (ICROP), participants were categorized into mild ( Results: The myopia rate in the severe group (80.0%) was higher than that in the moderate (52.0%) and mild (18.7%) groups ( Conclusion: Increased FAZ area, decreased SCP vessel density, and decreased choroidal thickness were associated with the development of myopia. Serum VEGF levels were correlated with macular microcirculatory parameters.
