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

purposeThe purpose of this study is to compare the corneal biomechanical properties of hyperthyroids without ophthalmopathy (HWO), thyroid eye disease (TED), and euthyroid participants.

methodsIn this prospective comparative study, one eye per patient included in the analysis and according to exclusion criteria, 38 eyes of 40 HWO patients, 31 eyes of 40 TED patients, and 150 eyes of 160 age- and sex-matched euthyroid participants were enrolled. All participants were evaluated by an endocrinologist and oculoplastic surgeon for evaluation of thyroid function and orbitopathy, respectively. Measurements of corneal biomechanical properties were performed using ocular response analyzer and Corvis ST tonometers.

resultsIn the HWO group, applanation-1 length (A1 L), applanation-2 velocity (A2V) (

conclusionCorneal biomechanical properties in the HWO and TED groups were different from the normal euthyroid individuals and may be taken into account in managing situation like glaucoma and refractive surgeries.
