Figure 2

Cumulative distribution of injections/sham with randomized assigned treatment before the 52-week study visit. Includes eyes that completed the 52-week study visit; 56 eyes in sham group with other eye in the ranibizumab + deferred laser group are not included in figure because they were unmasked and a sham injection was not required per protocol. There were 13 possible sham or study drug injections. Study drug injections and sham injections included a baseline treatment and monthly retreatments through 12 weeks. After 16 weeks, eyes assigned to one of the ranibizumab groups could receive ranibizumab as often as every 4 weeks; eyes assigned to intravitreal triamcinolone could receive triamcinolone as often as every 16 weeks with sham injections as often as every 4 weeks in between triamcinolone injections; eyes assigned to sham + prompt laser could receive sham injections as often as every 4 weeks. Of 503 injections given in triamcinolone group before 1 year, 36% were triamcinolone injections. Ranib = ranibizumab.
