Hypercortisolism and ocular microcirculation: exploring retinal and choroidal remodeling in Cushing's disease.
Article in International 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
aimTo investigate the potential of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) for detecting subclinical microvascular damage, possibly before ocular complications develop, in treatment-naive Cushing's disease (CD) patients.
methodsThis retrospective cross-sectional study included 48 newly diagnosed, treatment-naive CD patients and 48 healthy controls. Ophthalmological examinations, including best-corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCTA were conducted. Retinal and choroidal vessel density (VD) parameters were assessed in the macular and peripapillary regions. Correlations between VD and systemic hormone levels were analyzed.
resultsAge (47.3±13.3y
conclusionHigh endogenous cortisol levels in CD patients primarily affect the peripapillary region and the nasal part of the macula. VD changes occur before pachyvessel formation, choroidal thickening, and the development of pachychoroid spectrum disorder.
