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
purposeTo evaluate ocular surface changes and meibomian gland scores in patients with oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis prospective study was conducted at Ege University School of Medicine, Department of Ophthalmology. A total of 34 eyes of 17 patients with oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and 30 right eyes of 30 age and gender-matched healthy subjects were included. Besides ophthalmic examination Schirmer 1 test, tear film break up time, Oxford staining scale and meibography were performed.
resultsThere was no statistically significant differences between groups in terms of age, mean intraocular pressure, mean Schirmer 1 test value, tear film break up time and Oxford staining score. The median upper and lower eyelid meiboscore were 1 ± 0.60 (IQR = 1), and 0 ± 0.34 (IQR = 0) in Group 1, and they were 1 ± 0.56 (IQR = 0), 1 ± 0.12 (IQR = 1) in Group 2. Also, mean upper and lower meiboscores were statistically similar (p values 0.068 and 0.545, respectively). However, the median total meiboscore was 1 ± 0.42 (IQR = 1) in Group 1 and 1 ± 0.66 (IQR = 1) in Group 2. The difference was statistically significant (p = 0.041).
conclusionAqueous-deficient dry eye is a well-known condition in patients with rheumatologic diseases. However, evaporative dry eye and meibomian glands were not studied earlier. The current study demonstrated that total meiboscores of oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis patients are higher than normal subjects, which indicates a possible evaporative dry eye tendency in this entity.
