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 clinical significance of the photopic negative response (PhNRs) elicited by different stimuli from glaucomatous eyes. STUDY

designSingle-center observational study

methodEighty-four eyes of 84 patients with open angle glaucoma (OAG) and 40 eyes of 40 normal subjects were studied. Cone electroretinograms (ERGs) were elicited by white stimuli on a white background (W/W) or red stimuli on a blue background (R/B). The luminance of the stimuli was 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 or 3.0 cd-s/m

resultsThe correlation coefficients of the amplitudes of the PhNR1 elicited by W/W stimuli to the MDs and cpRNFL thickness were generally stronger, and the regression lines steeper than for the amplitudes of the PhNR1 elicited by R/B stimuli. In contrast, the correlation coefficients of the amplitudes of the PhNR2 elicited by R/B stimuli to the MDs and cpRNFL thickness were generally stronger, and the regression lines were steeper than the amplitudes of the PhNR2 elicited by W/W stimuli. With both types of stimuli, the slopes of the regression lines became steeper when the ERG recorded with higher stimulus intensities. The AUCs were significantly larger for the PhNR2 elicited by the R/B stimuli at 3.0 cd-s/m

conclusionThe PhNR1 and PhNR2 elicited by the W/W and R/B stimuli are suitable measures to assess the function of the RGCs in eyes with OAG. The PhNR2 elicited by R/B stimuli at higher stimulus intensities is most effective in detecting functional and structural changes of the RGCs with the highest diagnostic capacity in discriminating advanced glaucoma.
