Ocular biometric parameters are associated with non-contact tonometry measured intraocular pressure in non-pathologic myopic patients.

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
purposesThis research aimed to investigate effects and risk factors on non-contact tonometer (NCT) readings in healthy myopic subjects by employing cross-sectional study design.
methodsTotally, sixty otherwise healthy myopic volunteers (mean 28.4 years old) with 90% female were recruited in ophthalmic clinic. The routine ophthalmic tests, refractive evaluation, examination central corneal thickness (CCT), depth of anterior chamber, axial length, corneal curvature, white-to-white and NCT were assessed at baseline. The linear-mixed model was utilized to evaluate correlation between the readings and ocular biometric parameters.
resultsFor population in this study, mean spherical equivalents were - 4.85 ± 1.79 diopters in right eyes and - 4.63 ± 1.95 diopters in left eyes. Meanwhile, 28.3% of the eyes had a refractive error exceeding - 6.0 diopters. The mean NCT reading was 15.02 ± 3.02 mmHg in left eyes and 15.33 ± 2.96 mmHg in right eyes. Among the factors analyzed, CCT was the most significant parameter associated with NCT readings. After adjusting for the other factors, per one standard deviation increase of central corneal thickness (36.11 μm) was associated a 1.14 (95% confidence interval 0.53-1.77) mmHg elevated NCT reading. The average central corneal curvature, age and spherical equivalence were also significantly and independently associated with NCT readings.
conclusionsCentral corneal thickness, age, corneal curvature and degree of myopia were independently associated with NCT measured intraocular pressure. Central corneal thickness is one of the most influential factors.
