Quantification metrics for telangiectasia using optical coherence tomography.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant disorder that causes vascular malformations throughout the body. The most prevalent and accessible of these lesions are found throughout the skin and mucosa, and often rupture causing bleeding and anemia. A recent increase in potential HHT treatments have created a demand for quantitative metrics that can objectively measure the efficacy of new and developing treatments. We employ optical coherence tomography (OCT)-a high resolution, non-invasive imaging modality in a novel pipeline to image and quantitatively characterize dermal HHT lesion behavior over time or throughout the course of treatment. This study is aimed at detecting detailed morphological changes of dermal HHT lesions to understand the underlying dynamic processes of the disease. We present refined metrics tailored for HHT, developed from a pilot study using 3 HHT patients and 6 lesions over the course of multiple imaging dates, totalling to 26 lesion images. Preliminary results from these lesions are presented in this paper alongside representative OCT images. This study provides a new objective method to analyse and understand HHT lesions using a minimally invasive, accessible, cost-effective, and efficient imaging modality with quantitative metrics describing morphology and blood flow.
