1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThe aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between several ocular parameters (intraocular pressure [IOP], corneal biomechanical properties) and the visual field (VF) mean deviation (VF MD) in eyes with open-angle glaucoma (OAG).

methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional, observational study in which we measured the IOP with Goldmann applanation tonometry, the central corneal thickness (CCT), and the corneal parameters obtained from the Ocular Response Analyzer® (ORA®) and the Corvis® ST non-contact tonometer, in newly diagnosed and treatment-naïve eyes with OAG, to investigate whether there was any correlation between these ocular parameters and the VF MD.

resultsA total of 51 eyes were analyzed. A statistically significant correlation was found only between the VF MD and corneal hysteresis (CH) (P = 0.003, r

conclusionsThese results demonstrate that CH and CCT are associated with the amount of VF damage in treatment-naïve OAG eyes.
