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 compare the choroidal thickness (CT) of the affected eyes with the contralateral eyes in the active period and in the remission period in Posner-Schlossman syndrome (PSS) using EDI-OCT. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis prospective longitudinal study included 15 patients with PSS and 15 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects. All subjects underwent complete ophthalmologic examinations, and EDI-OCT was conducted to measure macular CT (mCT) at the subfoveal locations and at 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mm superior, inferior, nasal and temporal to the fovea. The mean measurements at each location were used for analysis. Linear regression analysis was performed to analyse the correlation between the choroidal thickness and IOP, and the correlation between the choroidal thickness and episode time.

resultsThe mean mCT was significantly thinner in affected eyes than in contralateral eyes in the acute phase (p = 0.010) but were not different in the remission phase (p = 0.404). The mean mCT was significantly increased in the remission phase compared to that in the acute phase in the affected eyes (p = 0.000). The mCT of healthy subjects was significantly thicker than in the affected eyes (p = 0.020) and similar to the fellow eyes of PSS patients (p = 0.357) in the acute phase. Linear regression analyses show negative correlations between the mCT changes and IOP changes in the affected eyes compared to those in the fellow eyes in the acute period (R

conclusionsThe mCT values of the PSS-affected eyes were significantly thinner than those of the fellow eyes in the acute phase and in the remission phase, and this change was correlated with IOP reduction and episode time.
