Lamina cribrosa thickness in children with hyperopic anisometropic amblyopia.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
aimTo determine lamina cribrosa thickness (LCT) in the optic nerve head region of the eyes in children with hyperopic anisometropic amblyopia and to compare this thickness with that of fellow eyes, hyperopic non-amblyopia, and age-matched controls.
methodsThirty-two patients (12.0±1.8y, mean± standard deviation) with hyperopic anisometropic amblyopia, 31 subjects with age- and refractive error-matched hyperopic non-amblyopia (10.7±2.2y), and 32 age-matched controls (11.2±2.0y) were included in this prospective, cross-sectional study. LCT was measured using an enhanced depth-imaging program of a spectral domain optical coherence tomographic instrument in all participants, and the correlation between LCT and axial length was calculated.
resultsThe mean LCT was 180.9±29.4 µm in amblyopic eyes, 247.7±19.0 µm in fellow eyes, 251.6±27.3 µm in hyperopic non-amblyopic eyes, and 240.2±15.8 µm in control eyes. Lamina cribrosa in amblyopic eyes was significantly thinner than fellow, hyperopic non-amblyopic, and control eyes (
conclusionLamina cribrosa of eyes with hyperopic anisometropic amblyopia is significantly thinner than that of fellow eyes, hyperopic non-amblyopia, and age-matched controls. The LCT profile in amblyopic eyes is different from that observed in fellow, hyperopic non-amblyopic, and control eyes.
