Eye Dynamics and Engineering Network Consortium: Baseline Characteristics of a Randomized Trial in Healthy Adults.
Trial report in Ophthalmology. Glaucoma. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeTo improve understanding of intraocular pressure (IOP) and its variance, this project identifies systemic and ocular characteristics of healthy eyes of adult volunteers including IOP variation, ocular biometrics, and aqueous humor dynamics (AHDs). These data serve as baseline controls for further studies from the Eye Dynamics and Engineering Network (EDEN) Consortium.
designMulticenter open-label clinical trial in healthy adults randomized to 1 week treatment with 2 approved glaucoma drugs in a crossover design.
participantsAmong 135 healthy participants, 122 participants (aged 55.2 ± 8.8 years; 92 females, 30 males) completed the protocol.
methodsParticipants from the University of Michigan, Mayo Clinic, and University of Nebraska Medical Center underwent measurements of ocular biometrics, AHD, and IOP using 4 tonometers. Intraocular pressure data during 3 study visits without glaucoma medications were used in the analysis. The PhenX Toolkit survey acquired standardized data on medical history, surgical history, medications, smoking and alcohol exposures, and physical measures.
main outcome measuresThe variability of IOP measurements within eyes was assessed as visit-to-visit IOP variation, within-visit IOP variation, and within-visit positional IOP variation. The concordance (or correlation) between eyes was also assessed.
resultsAverage positional change of > 4.7 mmHg was detected with a range of 0.5-11.0 mmHg. Pearson correlation of IOP between eyes within a visit was 0.87 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.82-0.91) for Goldmann applanation tonometry, 0.91 (95% CI, 0.88-0.94) for Icare rebound tonometry, and 0.91 (95% CI, 0.88-0.94) for pneumatonometry. There was a 4% to 12% asymmetric fluctuation of 3 mmHg or more between eyes between visits using rebound tonometry, 9% with Goldmann applanation tonometry, and 3% to 4% by pneumotonometry. The coefficient of variation between visits for the same eye ranged from 11.2% to 12.9% for pneumatonometry, from 13.6% to 17.4% for rebound tonometry, and 15.8% to 16.2% for Goldmann applanation tonometry.
conclusionsThe current study from the EDEN Consortium describes measurement methods and data analyses with emphasis on IOP variability. Future papers will focus on changes in ocular biometrics and AHD with timolol or latanoprost treatment.
