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 purpose of the study was to correlate the Fourier-domain OCT ganglion cell complex (GCC) parameters with automated perimetry (AP) functional measures of the optic nerve. This retrospective study included patients who had previously undergone examination with the RTVue-100 OCT and AP, SITA strategy. The parameters of GCC (average, superior, inferior, S-I [superior inferior difference], S-I SD [standard deviation of S-I], GLV [global loss volume] and FLV [focal loss volume]) were correlated with the mean deviation (MD) and pattern standard deviation (PSD) values of AP using linear and logarithmic regression analysis. All correlations between GCC and automated perimetry parameters were strong (r > 0.60), except that for SI and MD (r = -0.05); SI and PSD (r = 0.09); SI-DS and MD (r = -0.06); and SI-SD and PSD (r = 0.08). In summary, GCC derived structural measures showed good correlation with functional parameters from AP.
