Macular thickness analysis for glaucoma diagnosis and management.
Review in Taiwan journal of ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04311801 (Optical Coherence Tomography in Elderly Patients After Elective Orthopaedic Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 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.

Abstract
There is increasing literature regarding the role of macular imaging by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in glaucoma care. Spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) has allowed for high resolution imaging of the total macula and macular segments. With the use of asymmetry analysis, macular thickness is a measurement that can be used for the detection and progression of glaucoma. Some artifacts seen on retinal nerve fiber layer (rNFL) scans may be overcome by macular SD-OCT imaging. Also, nonglaucomatous optic neuropathies may be more easily identified on macular thickness plots than rNFL scans. Special populations, such as children or myopes, may also have improved glaucoma surveillance using macular SD-OCT. In this review we explore the advantages and pitfalls of macular OCT in glaucoma care and offer an approach on how to use macular thickness scans in clinical practice.
