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

Computed perimetry remains the gold standard of visual field measurement among glaucoma patients. However, several emerging technologies, made possible by advances in computer programming, smartphone, tablet, or virtual reality, allow alternative means of visual function assessment. These new visual tests may one day have a useful complementary role in visual field testing and to bridge the gap between perimetry and daily experience. Many of these emerging technologies have distinct practical advantages over Ganzfield bowl-based computed perimetry. This paper outlines a discussion of some of these emerging techniques in visual function assessment in glaucoma. HOW TO CITE THIS ARTICLE: Skalicky SE, Kong GYX.
