Detection of Longitudinal Ganglion Cell/Inner Plexiform Layer Change: Comparison of Two Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Devices.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeWe compared rates of change of macular ganglion cell/inner plexiform (GCIPL) thickness and proportion of worsening and improving rates from 2 optical coherence tomography (OCT) devices in a cohort of eyes with glaucoma.
designLongitudinal cohort study.
methodsIn a tertiary glaucoma clinic we evaluated 68 glaucoma eyes with ≥2 years of follow-up and ≥4 OCT images. Macular volume scans from 2 OCT devices were exported, coregistered, and segmented. Global and sectoral GCIPL data from the central 4.8 × 4.0-mm region were extracted. GCIPL rates of change were estimated with linear regression. Permutation analyses were used to control specificity with the 2.5 percentile cutoff point used to define "true" worsening. Main outcome measures included differences in global/sectoral GCIPL rates of change between 2 OCT devices and the proportion of negative vs positive rates of change (P < .05).
resultsAverage (standard deviation) 24-2 visual field mean deviation, median (interquartile range) follow-up time, and number of OCT images were -9.4 (6.1) dB, 3.8 (3.3-4.2) years, and 6 (5-8), respectively. GCIPL rates of thinning from Spectralis OCT were faster (more negative) compared with Cirrus OCT; differences were significant in superonasal (P = .03) and superotemporal (P = .04) sectors. A higher proportion of significant negative rates was observed with Spectralis OCT both globally and in inferotemporal/superotemporal sectors (P < .04). Permutation analyses confirmed the higher proportion of global and sectoral negative rates of change with Spectralis OCT (P < .001).
conclusionsChanges in macular GCIPL were detected more frequently on Spectralis' longitudinal volume scans than those of Cirrus OCT. OCT devices are not interchangeable with regard to detection of macular structural progression.
