Steady-State Pattern Electroretinography in Eyes with Glaucoma and High Myopia.

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
purposeTo investigate features of the steady-state pattern electroretinogram (ssPERG) in subjects with glaucoma (G), high myopia (HM; spherical equivalent ≤-6D) and glaucoma with high myopia (GHM). PATIENTS AND
methodsOur study included 48 participants divided into 3 groups (G, HM, and GHM) who each underwent monocular ssPERG testing with Diopsys NOVA PERG protocols. The ConStim protocol detects distinct topographic patterns of dysfunction 16° and 24° around the central macula. MagD is the amplitude of the average signal and MagD/Mag ratio indicates the consistency of the response. ssPERG indices were compared between groups and correlated with functional (ie, visual field mean deviation (VFMD)) and structural (ie, average retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness; Cirrus optical coherence tomography) features.
resultsParticipants had an average age of 59.4±7.6 years. Mean Humphrey VFMD was -14.22 ± 2.88dB, -2.62 ± 1.18dB and -12.80 ± 2.60dB for G, HM and GHM groups, respectively. Mean RNFL thickness was 63.0 ± 8.20μm, 69.5 ± 15.7μm and 60.6 ± 5.0μm for G, HM and GHM groups, respectively. For the 24° setting, no significant differences were noted for any of the parameters. For the 16° setting, MagD was lower in the GHM group compared to the HM group (0.29µV vs 0.52µV; p = 0.02). Significant differences were noted for the MagD/Mag ratio between HM and G groups (0.58 vs 0.40; p = 0.02) and between HM and GHM groups (0.58 vs 0.35; p = 0.002). There were positive correlations between both MagD 16° and MagD/Mag ratio 16° with VFMD (correlation coefficient [r]=0.37, p = 0.009; and r = 0.44, p = 0.002, respectively) and RNFL (r = 0.43, p = 0.002; and r = 0.48, p = 0.001, respectively).
conclusionMagD/Mag ratio at 16° was significantly lower in glaucomatous eyes (with or without high myopia) compared to those with high myopia without glaucoma, suggesting that glaucoma has a distinct impact on MagD/Mag ratio at 16° irrespective of the presence of myopia.
