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

To evaluate the prognosis and influencing factors of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in patients with concomitant carotid artery disease receiving anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment. Patients diagnosed with RVO and receiving anti-VEGF treatment were included. Eye and clinical data were collected. The patients were divided into a group with concomitant carotid artery disease (Group A) and a group without concomitant carotid artery disease (Group B). The risk factors affecting the visual prognosis of RVO patients with concomitant carotid artery disease were analyzed. Among 177 eligible patients with RVO, 101 had concomitant carotid artery disease (Group A), while 76 did not (Group B). Group A had a significantly lower treatment effectiveness rate than Group B (P < 0.001). The age and platelet distribution width of Group A were significantly higher than Group B (P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that baseline best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), disorganization of retinal inner layers (DRIL), external limiting membrane (ELM) disruption, and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) were significantly associated with the posttreatment visual prognosis of RVO patients with concomitant carotid artery disease(P < 0.05). RVO patients with concomitant carotid artery disease had a significantly lower treatment effectiveness rate than RVO patients without carotid artery disease. The poor baseline BCVA, DRIL, ELM disruption, and a greater RDW are risk factors for low anti-VEGF treatment efficacy among RVO patients with concomitant carotid artery disease.
