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

Cone-shaped corneas are blinding eye diseases characterised by dilated and thinning corneal tissue and forward conical protrusions, most often in adolescents. Early detection and intervention can prevent further dilatation of the cornea. The prevailing examination methods and techniques are not difficult to diagnose clinical cone corneas, but there are limitations in the diagnosis of early cone corneas (static cone corneas and subclinical cone corneas). In this study, we investigated the diagnostic value of the combination of these two instruments in the diagnosis of clinical cone corneas and subclinical cone corneas by performing the Pentacam and Corvis ST examinations in healthy eyes and dystrophic cone corneas. This study provides a theoretical basis for early cone cornea screening and diagnosis. The analysis revealed that only TP, SPA1, ARTh, and bIOP were normally distributed among all included parameters, and only bIOP was normally distributed with equal variance. TBI and CBI indices have a certain sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of subclinical cone corneas, with a strong diagnostic ability, and can be used for screening and early diagnosis of cone corneas.
