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
Corneal biomechanics play a fundamental role in the genesis and progression of corneal pathologies, such as keratoconus; in corneal remodeling after corneal surgery; and in affecting the measurement accuracy of glaucoma biomarkers, such as the intraocular pressure (IOP). Air-puff induced corneal deformation imaging reveals information highlighting normal and pathological corneal response to a non-contact mechanical excitation. However, current commercial systems are limited to monitoring corneal deformation only on one corneal meridian. Here, we present a novel custom-developed swept-source optical coherence tomography (SSOCT) system, coupled with a collinear air-puff excitation, capable of acquiring dynamic corneal deformation on multiple meridians. Backed by numerical simulations of corneal deformations, we propose two different scan patterns, aided by low coil impedance galvanometric scan mirrors that permit an appropriate compromise between temporal and spatial sampling of the corneal deformation profiles. We customized the air-puff module to provide an unobstructed SSOCT field of view and different peak pressures, air-puff durations, and distances to the eye. We acquired multi-meridian corneal deformation profiles (a) in healthy human eyes
