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
purposeTo evaluate the association between baseline ocular variables and the widening of the anterior chamber angle by laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) in primary angle closure suspects (PACS) using a new Fourier-domain swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (FD-ASOCT).
methodSixty-six PACS eyes of 41 individuals were enrolled in this prospective interventional case series. An FD-ASOCT (Casia SS-1000 OCT; Tomey, Nagoya, Japan) was used to measure biometric baseline variables and at 1 month after the LPI. Paired t test was used to compare the difference between pre-and post-LPI measurements. Multivariate regression analysis was used to test for an association between baseline iris thickness and volume, anterior chamber depth and volume, and lens vault with a widening of the angle after an LPI. Changes in trabecular iris space area and angle opening distance after the LPI were main outcome measures.
resultsThe mean age of participants was 58.6 ± 8.7 years, 68.2% of whom were female. The angle opening distance, recess area, and trabecular iris surface area at 500 μm increased by 48 to 73% (all P < 0.001). Lens vault and iris volume did not change. A low anterior chamber volume and low iris volume were associated with angle greater deepening by LPI.
conclusionEyes with a shallow anterior chamber and thinner irises are more likely to experience angle opening from an LPI.
