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

The study investigated clinical features of sellar and suprasellar tumors with optic nerve bending. Twenty-five patients (13 men/12 women; age, 59.0 ± 12.9 years) with optic nerve bending in one eye who underwent tumor resection for sellar and suprasellar tumors were included. The other eye, without optic nerve bending, was the control. The pre- and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and ganglion cell layer (GCL) + inner plexiform layer (IPL) thickness were studied retrospectively using optical coherence tomography. Preoperative BCVA in the eye with optic nerve bending was significantly poor and improved significantly after tumor resection. Eyes with optic nerve bending had significantly less GCL + IPL thickness on the temporal side than eyes without optic nerve bending. Preoperative GCL + IPL thickness of the entire macula was reduced in eyes with optic nerve bending and poor postoperative BCVA compared to those with good postoperative BCVA. There was no significant difference in GCL + IPL thickness of eyes with optic nerve bending before and after tumor resection. Optic nerve bending caused by sellar and suprasellar tumors resulted in visual impairment and decreased retinal ganglion cells. Eyes with optic nerve bending and severely reduced GCL + IPL thickness may have less BCVA improvement after tumor resection.
