Unleashing the power of optical attenuation coefficients to facilitate segmentation strategies in OCT imaging of age-related macular degeneration: perspective.
Article in Biomedical optics express, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
The use of optical attenuation coefficients (OAC) in optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging of the retina has improved the segmentation of anatomic layers compared with traditional intensity-based algorithms. Optical attenuation correction has improved our ability to measure the choroidal thickness and choroidal vascularity index using dense volume scans. Algorithms that combine conventional intensity-based segmentation with depth-resolved OAC OCT imaging have been used to detect elevations of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) due to drusen and basal laminar deposits, the location of hyperpigmentation within the retina and along the RPE, the identification of macular atrophy, the thickness of the outer retinal (photoreceptor) layer, and the presence of calcified drusen. OAC OCT algorithms can identify the risk-factors that predict disease progression in age-related macular degeneration.
