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

The pharmacokinetics of the anterior eye comprises the application, resorption, bioavailability, metabolization and elimination of topically administered drugs. In addition to the necessity of the penetration of the substance through the naturally occurring barriers of the eye in the form of the tear film, cornea, conjunctiva and sclera, the correct technique for administration is necessary for an optimal effect of the drug. Several new application devices have been described in the literature but most are still in an experimental phase. The main aims are to increase drug exposure time to the anterior surface of the eye and decrease problems in administration. Furthermore, new preservative agents are in use in order to produce less toxic side effects.
