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

purposeTo investigate hemodynamic changes in the ophthalmic artery(OA) and central retinal artery(CRA) of contralateral healthy eyes in patients with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) and their correlation with the affected eye.

methodsThis study included 36 patients with CRAO(affected eye group), 32 healthy contralateral eyes(healthy eye group), and 34 healthy volunteers(control group). All participants underwent comprehensive ophthalmic examinations, including best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA, converted to LogMAR for analysis), slit-lamp microscopy, indirect ophthalmoscopy, intraocular pressure measurement, and color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI). Patients with CRAO also underwent fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA) within 3 days of presentation.

resultsCompared to the control group, the systolic peak velocity(Oamax) of the OA was decreased in the affected eyes but increased in the contralateral healthy eyes. The systolic peak velocity(CRAmax) of the CRA was significantly reduced in both the affected and contralateral healthy eyes compared to controls. Correlation analysis revealed significant positive correlations between various OA and CRA flow parameters(e.g.,,OAmax,OAPI,CRAmax,CRAPI,in the healthy eye and their corresponding affected eyes. Conversely, the central retinal artery pulsatility index(CRAPI) in healthy eyes was negatively correlated with the CRA minimum velocity(CRAmin) in affected eyes. Furthermore, in the contralateral healthy eye,CRAmax showed a positive correlation with the time from symptom onset to examination.

conclusionBlood flow in the contralateral healthy eyes of patients is altered and showed significant correlations with the hemodynamic parameters of the affected eyes, suggesting that these so-called "healthy" eyes may be affected by a CRAO event and could potentially have pre-existing subclinical abnormalities.
