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
BACKGROUND Chronic ocular hypertension (COH) models mostly focus on changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) and loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). The present study evaluated important glaucoma-related changes in visual function, response to common ocular hypotensive drugs, and safety for our previously developed rat model. MATERIAL AND METHODS The model was established through a single injection of hydrogel into the anterior chambers. Efficacy was assessed through F-VEP by measuring latency and amplitude of P1. We evenly divided 112 rats into 4 groups: control and COH at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. Response to 5 common drugs (brimonidine, timolol, benzamide, pilocarpine, and bimatoprost) were each tested on 6 rats and assessed using difference in IOP. Safety assessment was conducted through histological analysis of 24 rats evenly divided into 4 groups of control and COH at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. Corneal endothelial cells (CECs) of 24 additional rats were used to determine toxic effects through TUNEL and CCK-8 assays. RESULTS P1 latency and amplitude of VEP demonstrated the model is effective in inducing optic nerve function impairment. Only the drug pilocarpine failed to have an obvious hypotensive effect, while the other 4 were effective. CECs at 2, 4, and 8 weeks showed no significant differences from control groups in results of histological analysis, TUNEL, and CCK-8 assays. CONCLUSIONS A single injection of hydrogel into the anterior chamber is effective for modeling COH, can respond to most commonly used hypotensive drugs, and is non-toxic to the eyes.
