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

backgroundGlaucomatous optic neuropathy is a complex process, which not only leads to destruction of the retinal ganglion cells but also negatively influences the third and fourth neurons. Therefore, in histological studies of glaucoma a significant cell loss in both the lateral geniculate nucleus and in the visual cortex could be detected.

objectiveThe involvement of the entire visual pathway in glaucoma leads to a variety of functional disturbances, which are presented in this overview.

resultsBesides the well-known visual field defects in glaucomatous optic neuropathy, additional disturbances occur in contrast sensitivity, color vision, stereo vision and increased sensitivity to glare. As a result, faces are less easily recognized , the reading speed is reduced, the location of objects is more complicated and the reaction rate decreases. All these alterations are increased with the progression of glaucomatous damage. DISCUSSION: The consequences of these visual impairments lead to an increasing social isolation and to an increased risk of falls and driving accidents, thereby significantly reducing the quality of life of glaucoma patients. Therefore, increasing awareness of these visual difficulties is necessary in the special care of patients with glaucoma and the domestic environment should be transformed accordingly.
