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

objectiveTo evaluate safety and efficacy of topically administered 0.02% netarsudil ophthalmic solution (Rhopressa™; Aerie Pharmaceutical) in normal and glaucomatous dogs with ADAMTS10-open-angle glaucoma (ADAMTS10-OAG). ANIMALS STUDIED: Five normal and 5 glaucomatous Beagle dogs with ADAMTS10-OAG. PROCEDURES: In each dog, left or right eye was randomly selected for netarsudil treatment. Contralateral eyes were sham-treated with balanced salt solution (BSS). Following a 1-week baseline period, dogs were treated once daily (q24h) during week 2, and twice daily (q12h) during week 3; week 4 served as washout period. Efficacy was measured by diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) and pupil diameter. Safety was assessed by routine ophthalmic examination, gonioscopy, and pachymetry. Differences in least square means of quantitative outcome measures were compared between netarsudil and BSS sham-treated eyes by linear Gaussian model.

resultsBaseline IOPs were 18.5 ± 0.5 mm Hg (mean ± SEM) in normal and 27.8 ± 1.0 mm Hg in OAG dogs. Even though mean IOPs were lower in netarsudil- vs sham-treated eyes, the overall differences were neither significant nor clinically relevant, regardless of treatment frequency (q24h-normal: sham 16.4 ± 1.1 mm Hg vs treatment 15.6 ± 1.0 mm Hg; q24hr-OAG: sham 25.8 ± 2.3 mm Hg vs. treatment 25.7 ± 2.4 mm Hg; q12hr-normal: sham 15.4 ± 0.8 mm Hg vs. treatment 14.4 ± 0.8 mm Hg; q12hr-OAG: sham 26.3 ± 1.7 mm Hg vs. treatment 25.4 ± 1.8 mm Hg). Netarsudil administration was well tolerated but resulted in significant, moderate-to-severe conjunctival hyperemia (P < .001).

conclusionsOnce or twice daily administration of netarsudil resulted in marginal and clinically irrelevant IOP decreases in normal and OAG-affected dogs. Except for conjunctival hyperemia, the drug was well tolerated.
