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

Purpose: To examine demographic and clinical factors associated with glaucomatous peripapillary retinoschisis (PPRS) and assess its association with glaucoma progression. Methods: Using a case control study design and longitudinal data from a cohort of 166 subjects with a diagnosis of glaucoma or glaucoma suspect, we compared functional, structural, clinical, and demographic characteristics between PPRS cases and controls. Results: The frequency of PPRS was 6.0% (12 eyes from 10/166 subjects) with two eyes having PPRS in different sectors for a total of 15 retinoschisis events. There were no significant differences (P > 0.05) in age, sex, visual acuity, central corneal thickness, intraocular pressure, or presence of vitreous adhesion between PPRS and controls. However, eyes with PPRS tended to have a higher cup-to-disc ratio (P = 0.06), thinner RNFL (P = 0.02), and worse visual field mean deviation (MD, P = 0.06) than controls. The rate of RNFL thinning was faster in PPRS (average: -2.8%/year; range: -7.4% to 0.0%/year) than controls (-1.3%/year; range: -4.4% to 0.6%/year; P = 0.021). The rate of visual field MD change was faster in PPRS (-0.49 dB/year; range: -2.0 to 0.9 dB/year) than controls (-0.06 dB/year; range: -0.8 to 0.3 dB/year; P = 0.030). OCT scans showed hyperreflective structures spanning the PPRS whose morphology and spacing (50 ± 7 μm) are consistent with Müller glia, causing signal attenuation casting "shadows" onto distal retina. Conclusions: This is the first report showing that glaucomatous PPRS is associated with a faster overall rate of RNFL thinning and visual field deterioration and to specifically identify OCT signs of Müller cell involvement.
