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
STUDY
objectivesThis study aimed to identify prospectively the correlation between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity, ocular microcirculation changes, and visual function changes in patients with glaucoma.
methodsWe prospectively enrolled patients with glaucoma who were willing to undergo overnight polysomnography. The enrolled patients were further divided into normal tension glaucoma, high-tension glaucoma, and control. Visual field progression was analyzed using sequential standard automated perimetry. Peripapillary and macular vessel density were assessed through optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-angiography). The associations between polysomnography parameters, OCT-angiography parameters, and visual field progression were analyzed.
resultsA total of 22 patients with normal tension glaucoma, 30 patients with high-tension glaucoma, and 24 control patients were enrolled. Through regression analysis, glaucoma was found to be an independent predictor of moderate-to-severe OSA (
conclusionsPresence of glaucoma increased the risk of moderate-to-severe OSA compared with the control group. OSA severity was related to visual field deterioration in patients with glaucoma and further associated with structural progression in the normal tension glaucoma subgroup. Careful monitoring of the comorbid OSA status of patients with glaucoma is essential to prevent disease progression. CITATION: Chan Y-H, Chuang L-H, Yu C-C, et al.
