Corneal hysteresis and glaucoma.
Review in International ophthalmology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
purposeTo review and summarize the characteristics of corneal hysteresis (CH) and its relationship with glaucoma.
methodsA PubMed search was carried out using the terms "corneal hysteresis", "glaucoma", and "biomechanics". Up to March 2018, all studies published in English are included in this review.
resultsThe value of CH reflects the ability of corneal tissue to absorb and release energy during bidirectional flattening. It is an important biomechanical parameter of the cornea. The CH value of healthy adults is about 11 mmHg. The measurement of CH is reproducible and different. People have different CH values, which are determined by the shape of the individual's cornea. The study found that all types of glaucoma, including primary open angle glaucoma, angle-closure glaucoma, normal tension glaucoma, congenital glaucoma, binocular asymmetrical glaucoma, CH values are lower than normal people, therefore, CH is therefore a good indicator of glaucoma diagnosis and screening. Lower CH values are associated with thinner retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), larger linear cup/disk ratio (LCDR) and degree of optic disc defect. A lower CH value can also result in a lower visual field index. CH and the basic intraocular pressure play a synergistic role in the progression of glaucoma. The study found that CH can change with changes in basic intraocular pressure, means CH increases when intraocular pressure decreases, while the CH decreases conversely when intraocular pressure increases. Most clinical case studies have shown a decrease in CH after LASER refractive surgery. CH has its limitations, such as corneal damage or corneal surgery, but in general, CH is a risk factor for glaucoma progression.
conclusionCH is used as a predictor of glaucoma risk and may help to assess the effect of corneal thickness on intraocular pressure. The clinical significance of CH in the diagnosis and efficacy of glaucoma will become more explicit. In the future, CH can also play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma.
