Correlation Between Central Corneal Thickness and Radial Peripapillary Capillary Density, in Patients With Ocular Hypertension.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose To investigate any possible relationship between the central corneal thickness and the radial peripapillary capillary density detected by optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography in eyes with ocular hypertension. Materials and methods In this observational study, 135 eyes were examined. OCT angiography of the optic disc (4.5 mm) and ultrasound corneal pachymetry were performed in all cases. Age, medical treatment for ocular hypertension, sex, and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness were evaluated. The main indices of blood flow were also examined. Spearman correlation coefficients were used to explore the association between two continuous variables. Results A directly proportional significance regarding the correlation between central corneal thickness and radial peripapillary network was indicated in eyes with ocular hypertension (p = .036). Conclusions Central corneal thickness and radial peripapillary capillary density constitute two essential screening parameters for patients with ocular hypertension.
