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
Introduction: The aim of this study was to characterize optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings in choroidal osteoma and evaluate their associations with subretinal fluid, choroidal neovascularization, and structural retinal changes. Methods: This retrospective descriptive case series included 7 patients (10 eyes) with choroidal osteoma evaluated at a tertiary referral center. All eyes underwent comprehensive ophthalmologic examination and spectral-domain OCT imaging. OCT scans were analyzed for predefined structural features, including hyperreflective lamellar patterns, spongiform appearance, outer retinal alterations, and subretinal fluid. Subretinal fluid was classified as neovascular or non-neovascular based on OCT characteristics. Results: OCT revealed marked structural heterogeneity. Three eyes demonstrated isolated subretinal fluid without neovascular features, resolving spontaneously in two cases. Three eyes showed chronic subretinal fluid or intraretinal cystic changes with neovascular OCT features and responded favorably to repeated intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy. One eye with long-term follow-up exhibited progressive tumor decalcification with severe retinal and choroidal thinning and poor visual outcome. Focal choroidal excavation was identified in one eye in association with choroidal neovascularization. Conclusion: Choroidal osteoma exhibits heterogeneous OCT patterns reflecting different mechanisms of visual impairment. Careful OCT-based assessment may aid differentiation of neovascular and non-neovascular changes and guide clinical management.
