Ultra-widefield indocyanine green angiography findings of vortex veins in central serous chorioretinopathy.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 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
purposeTo characterize choroidal circulation in the vortex veins in central serous chorioretinopathy. STUDY
designSingle-center retrospective study.
methodsThe study included 22 eyes with central serous chorioretinopathy from 22 patients with serous retinal detachment at the macula (18 men and four women, mean age 47.3 years). Ultra-widefield indocyanine green angiography was performed using Optos
resultsIn 13 of the 22 eyes, the vortex veins were hypofluorescent in all quadrants and continuous with the vortex ampullae. In five eyes, only the asymmetric dilated vortex vein was hypofluorescent, and in four eyes, the vortex veins were not hypofluorescent. Of the 22 contralateral eyes examined, 20 eyes exhibited identical findings in the vortex veins to those observed in the affected eye. Of the four eyes that did not exhibit hypofluorescence of the vortex veins in the affected eye, two eyes had partial hypofluorescence of some vortex veins in the contralateral eye, showing different findings.
conclusionsIn the late phase, some eyes showed hypofluorescence due to the washout of indocyanine green dye in the vortex veins and others did not, suggesting that obstruction of the scleral passage in the choroidal venous outflow is not the main cause of the syndrome.
