Abnormal corneal properties in osteogenesis imperfecta and glaucoma: a case series.
Article in BMJ open ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveWe aimed to carry out ocular examination and genetic studies in a family in which some members are affected with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). We compared the corneal properties of affected and unaffected members (ie, cases and controls).
methodsEight family members from two generations, both affected and unaffected, were examined. Corneal hysteresis (CH), intraocular pressure (IOP) measured with Goldmann applanation tonometer, central corneal thickness (CCT) and cornea-corrected IOP (IOPcc) were recorded. Blood samples were obtained from seven family members, both affected and unaffected, and tested for a panel of genes associated with OI.
resultsFamily members affected with OI (n=6) had a heterozygous splice site mutation in intron 26 of the
conclusionsPatients affected with OI have a significant risk of developing POAG due to the effects of abnormal collagen on various ocular structures. Two of these effects which place them at risk are reduced CCT and CH. They should be screened and monitored for glaucoma from a young age, and the examination should include corneal biomechanical measurements and CCT to identify those most at risk. IOPcc may be a more accurate way to monitor IOP in the presence of abnormal corneal properties.
