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

Reliable visual field testing is the gold standard in identifying future vision loss in patients with Idiopathic Intracranial hypertension (IIH). However, when field performance is unreliable, GCC analysis may be useful. We evaluated IIH patients over three visits: initial visit, follow-up visit and a third visit, almost 1 year later. We evaluated mean deviation (MD), GCC and RNFL at presentation and the second visit and compared it to the mean deviation (MD) on fields at the third visit. As early as the second visit, GCC loss correlated with visual field results seen at the third visit.
