Patterns of Inflammation in Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis and Their Correlation to Optical Coherence Tomography Findings in Human Uveitis.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) in rats is a pivotal model for understanding the immunological mechanisms of human uveitis and developing therapies. In humans, optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows for the in vivo detection of characteristic findings in active uveitis, as well as sequelae of inflammation. The objective of this study was to correlate OCT findings in patients with uveitis with retinal histologies from two rat models of EAU caused by T cells with different autoantigen specificities and well-known underlying immunological pathomechanisms. Patients with various noninfectious uveitis subtypes underwent imaging using an ultra-widefield swept source or conventional OCT. Histological cryosections from rat eyes with experimental autoimmune uveitis were stained for T cell and/or macrophage markers. Typical human OCT findings were reproduced in the experimental animal model. Hyperreflective signals observed on OCT corresponded to lymphocyte infiltration in histological sections. This infiltration was typically found as vasculitis in the perivascular regions and snowballs in the posterior hyaloid. There was lymphocyte and macrophage infiltration of the retina through the retinal vessels and the retinal pigment epithelium. Comparing in vivo OCT imaging of human uveitis with corresponding histologies from rat models improves our understanding of the type of inflammation, extent of tissue destruction, and immunopathogenesis.
