Comparison of measurements of anterior chamber angle
Trial report in World journal of clinical cases, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundGlaucoma is an irreversible optic neuropathy with the loss of visual field and decrease of vision. The variable clinical manifestations may result in differential diagnostic difficulties. The early screening and diagnosis of glaucoma are currently experiencing a demand for anterior segment analysis tools that can gather more information with one short measurement. Therefore, we analyzed the agreement, difference, and correlation of chamber angle parameters such as angel opening distance at 500 μm (AOD500) and trabeculo-iris space area at 500 μm
aimTo compare the differences, correlation, and agreement in measuring AOD500 and TISA500 by AS-OCT and UBM.
methodsBoth AS-OCT and UBM were performed to measure AOD500 and TISA500 in 45 subjects (72 eyes). All subjects without glaucoma were collected from October 2015 to August 2016 at the Ophthalmology Department of the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University. Data of the two groups (AOD500 and TISA500) were compared by nonparametric tests. Pearson correlative analysis and Bland-Altman analysis were used to compare the correlation and agreement.
resultsThere were no significant differences between AS-OCT and UBM in measuring AOD500 (
conclusionThere is a high correlation and agreement between AOD500 and TISA500 measurements by AS-OCT and UBM. They are interchangeable under some circumstances. AS-OCT proves to be a better early screening tool for glaucoma.
