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

purposeTo evaluate choroidal changes in the fellow eyes of patients with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR).

methodsA retrospective study was conducted on 50 participants, including 25 patients with unilateral chronic CSCR and 25 age-matched healthy controls. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enhanced depth imaging (EDI) and OCT-angiography (OCT-A) images were processed using ImageJ, and three parameters were analyzed: flow deficit (FD), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), and choroidal vascular index (CVI).

resultsCSCR eyes had significantly higher SFCT (320.9 ± 59.5), FD (54.2 ± 9.2), and CVI (52.8 ± 18.2) compared to healthy controls (SFCT 263.8 ± 66.6; FD 43.9 ± 9.9; CVI 22.6 ± 11.8). No significant differences were found between CSCR and fellow eyes, but fellow eyes showed higher values (SFCT 296.6 ± 51.9; FD 44.5 ± 6.3; CVI 46.5 ± 20.3) than healthy controls. ANOVA confirmed group differences, with post-hoc tests showing CSCR eyes differed significantly from healthy controls. Pearson's analysis found positive correlations for SFCT but inconsistent correlations between FD and CVI, limiting reliability.

conclusionsThis study confirms choroidal vascular changes in both CSCR and fellow eyes, suggesting their role in pathogenesis and a possible genetic or environmental predisposition. These findings may help improve diagnosis, prognosis, and risk assessment in patients with CSCR.
