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

Systemic medications, such as antihistaminic and anti-inflammatory agents used in the treatment of asthma and allergy, may have adverse effects on the eye. The major adverse effects on the eye have included cataracts, glaucoma, and tear-film dysfunction (dry-eye syndrome). The use of inhaled corticosteroids (bronchial and nasal) has been associated with mild systemic effects when compared with oral corticosteroids. The development of cataracts and glaucoma has been more commonly associated with earlier "hard" oral and inhaled steroids that affected individuals with an inherent high susceptibility or those who used them for several years. Whereas oral antihistamines commonly have an effect on allergies within hours, they also may exacerbate dry-eye complaints that commonly complicate symptoms with various forms of tear film dysfunction or conjunctival hyperreactivity. Clinicians should be aware that other systemic agents may complicate their attempts to maximize the treatment of ocular allergies.
