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

Purpose: To assess whether the combination of Design: Retrospective, longitudinal study. Participants: Patients with DR that had at least 2 visits. Methods: We obtained wide-field OCTA scans of 1 eye from each participant and generated Main Outcome Measures: The characteristics and longitudinal observation of early signs of RNV. Results: From 71 eyes, we identified RNV in 20 eyes with the combination of OCT and OCTA, of which 13 (65%) were photographically graded as proliferative DR, 6 (30%) severe nonproliferative DR, and 1 (5%) moderate nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy. From these eyes, we identified 38 RNV sprouts and 26 RNV fronds at the baseline. Thirty-four RNVs (53%) originated from veins, 24 (38%) were from intraretinal microabnormalities, and 6 (9%) were from a nondilated capillary bed. At the final visit, 53 RNV sprouts and 30 RNV fronds were detected. Ten eyes (50%) showed progression, defined as having a new RNV lesion or the development of an RNV frond from an RNV sprout. Four (11%) RNV sprouts developed into RNV fronds with a mean interval of 7.0 months. Nineteen new RNV sprouts developed during the follow-up, whereas no new RNV frond was observed outside an identified RNV sprout. The eyes with progression were of younger age ( Conclusions: Longitudinal observation demonstrated that a combination of Financial Disclosures: Proprietary or commercial disclosure may be found in the Footnotes and Disclosures at the end of this article.
