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

BACKGROUND/

aimsTo evaluate the association of macular vessel density (VD) and ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness with 10-2 central visual field (CVF) progression in glaucoma.

methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, patients with glaucoma from Diagnostic Innovation in Glaucoma Study with≥five 10-2 visual field (VF) tests and 3-year follow-up before optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) imaging were included. Whole-image GCC thickness (wiGCC) and superficial VD (wiVD) were obtained from 6*6 macula scans. The association of wiVD and wiGCC with past rate of 10-2 VF mean deviation worsening, and with past CVF progression (defined using clustered linear regression criteria) was evaluated using linear mixed models after adjusting for confounders.

resultsFrom 238 eyes (141 patients), 25 eyes (11%) of 16 patients were CVF progressors. In the multivariable analysis of the association between OCT/OCTA parameters and past rate of 10-2 CVF worsening, lower wiVD (β=-0.04 (-0.05, -0.02); p<0.001; R

conclusionsLower macular VD and GCC were associated with faster worsening of CVF, and lower macular VD was associated with increased odds of CVF progression. Assessment of macular OCT and OCTA may help detect glaucoma eyes with CVF progression.
