Classifications of Qualitative Characteristics on Angle Configurations via Ultrasound Biomicroscopy in Acute Primary Angle Closure.
Article in Clinical interventions in aging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Purpose: To study the classifications of qualitative characteristics on the angle configurations in the acute primary angle closure (APAC) and fellow eyes by ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM). Methods: A total of 131 patients (262 eyes) were researched retrospectively. The qualitative parameters from UBM images were classified into iris form (IF), ciliary body configuration (CBC), basal iris thickness (BIT), iris convexity (IC), iris insert (II), iris angulation (IA), ciliary body size (CBS) and ciliary body position (CBP). Comparative analyses between the APAC (case group) and fellow (control group) eyes were performed. Results: There were significant differences in IF, CBC, IC, II, CBS, CBP between the case group and control group in all quadrants ( Conclusion: Multiple ciliary body configurations can influence the stability of the lens and the anatomic configuration of the anterior chamber angle indirectly. New qualitative classification system of UBM may be more intuitionistic and refined to reflect the angle configurations to help clinical practice.
