Comparison of Changes in Eye Findings of Premenopausal and Postmenopausal Women.
Article in Cureus, 2021. 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
Objectives This study aimed to compare the presence of blepharitis, ocular tension (OT) with corneal thickness, refractive values and ocular axial length changes in premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Materials and methods Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), oestradiol (E2), refractive values with prolactin, refractions in horizontal and vertical meridians, OT values, ocular axial length, central corneal thickness and the presence of blepharitis were evaluated in 153 premenopausal patients and 142 postmenopausal patients. Results Statistically significant differences were found for the values for right eye OT (P < 0.001), left eye OT (P < 0.001) and presence of blepharitis. There appears to be no relationship between corneal refractive values corneal thickness or ocular axial length. Conclusions Woman in postmenopausal period should be examined by ophthalmologist because of the significant increase in blepharitis and OT.
