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

purposeTo evaluate ocular biometric changes in healthy subjects after caffeine consumption from a cup of coffee.

methodsA total of 36 subjects were included in this prospective observational study. Axial length (AL) and anterior segment parameters including aqueous depth (AD), anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), and central corneal thickness (CCT) were measured with optic biometry, Lenstar LS 900 (Haag-Streit, Inc., Koeniz, Switzerland) before and 1 and 4 h after ingesting a cup of coffee (60 mg caffeine/100 mL).

resultsMean age of the participants was 30.05 ± 7.43 years (range, 19-45). At baseline, 1st, and 4th hour, AL values were 23.9 ± 1.04 mm, 23.91 ± 1.04 mm, and 23.89 ± 1.04 mm, respectively, and no significant difference was observed (P>0.05). At baseline, 1st, and 4th hour, AD values were 3.06 ± 0.3 mm, 3.11 ± 0.3 mm, and 3.09 ± 0.3 mm, and ACD values were 3.6 ± 0.32, 3.66 ± 0.31, and 3.64 ± 0.31, respectively. AD and ACD values were significantly greater than baseline at 1st and 4th hours following coffee ingestion. Coffee intake caused a significant reduction in LT, compared with baseline and at the 1st and 4th hours which were 3.76 ± 0.28 mm, 3.69 ± 0.32 mm, and 3.72 ± 0.27 mm, respectively. No statistically significant difference was determined in between the 3 measurements in terms of CCT (P>0.05).

conclusionCaffeine causes a significant increase in AD and ACD and a significant decrease in LT following oral intake, for at least 4 h.
