Effects of a dorzolamide/timolol fixed combination on diurnal intraocular pressure, heart rate, blood pressure, and ocular perfusion pressure in normal-tension glaucoma.
Trial report in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
purposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a dorzolamide-timolol fixed combination (DTFC) on intraocular pressure (IOP), heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), ocular perfusion pressure (OPP), and diastolic ocular perfusion pressure (DOPP) in patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG).
methodsA prospective, interventional, single-blind, single-center study was conducted. Newly diagnosed NTG patients that had not been treated with a glaucoma medication in the most recent 4 weeks were included. Patients were examined at baseline (without medication) and week 4 (under medication). Baseline IOP, HR, systolic and diastolic BP, OPP, and DOPP were measured at 8 am, 12 pm, and 4 pm. At week 4, IOP, HR, systolic and diastolic BP, OPP, and DOPP were measured at 10 am and 8 pm as well.
resultsAfter 4 weeks of DTFC treatment, IOP was significantly reduced at all time points (1.6-2.6 mmHg, P < 0.001), and the average IOP reduction was 14.4 %. HR and systolic BP showed no statistically significant difference at all time points; however, diastolic BP was decreased significantly at 12 pm and 4 pm (P = 0.004 and 0.001). OPP and DOPP showed no statistical significant difference after DTFC.
conclusionsDTFC has favorable effects on IOP and can be used without concerns of DOPP in patients with NTG.
