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

Background cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) involves amyloid-β deposition in cerebral vessels. Its effects on the ocular circulation remain unclear. Using swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA), this study quantitatively characterized choroidal parameters in CAA patients and their correlation with MRI neuroimaging markers. Method CAA patients and matched controls were enrolled. We used SS-OCTA to obtain choroidal parameters including thickness, choriocapillaris flow density, choroidal vascular volume (CVV), and choroidal vascular index (CVI). The correlations between these parameters and CAA-specific neuroimaging markers on MRI were then analyzed. Results in the study comprising 23 eyes from 23 CAA patients and 23 eyes from 23 healthy controls, we interrogated choroidal parameters using SS-OCTA. The CAA group exhibited a significantly lower choriocapillaris flow density compared to controls (P < 0.05). Furthermore, this parameter showed a nominal inverse association with the burden of subcortical spot white matter hyperintensities, which did not survive correction for multiple comparisons (FDR-adjusted q > 0.05). Conclusion our study suggests that reduction in choriocapillaris density may serve as a potential cross-sectional biomarker for CAA, pending validation in longitudinal studies.
