Risk factors for periorbital dermatitis in patients using dorzolamide/timolol eye drops.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This study assessed the clinical risk factors for periorbital dermatitis (PD) after using dorzolamide/timolol eye drops in a total of 1282 glaucoma patients. Both the PD(+) group and the PD(-) group were evaluated using clinical data such as age, sex, dosing duration, presence of benzalkonium chloride (BAK) in the formulation, ocular surgery history (e.g. cataract or glaucoma operations), height, weight, personal history of systemic hypertension, smoking, alcohol consumption, intraocular pressure, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central corneal thickness, axial length, and visual field index (VFI). Univariate analyses showed that shorter dosing duration, higher rate of BAK-included cases, worse BCVA, worse VFI, more systemic hypertension history, and more ocular surgery history were more associated with the PD(+) group than the PD(-) group. The BAK(-) group showed a lower PD rate than the BAK-included group, which was supported by the Kaplan-Meier analysis (log-rank test, p = 0.0014). Multivariate analyses revealed that the probability of PD increased by 8 times if they had a history of ocular surgery and increased by 2.3% when the VFI decreased by 1% (Cox's hazard regression test, p < 0.001). Therefore, a preservative-free dorzolamide/timolol can benefit the subjects for those who had ocular surgery or who have worse VFI.
