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

Purpose: To compare the retinal sensitivities between the blue-on-yellow perimetry (BYP)/short-wavelength automated perimetry (SWAP) and green-on-yellow perimetry (GYP) among patients with and without nuclear sclerosis among glaucoma suspects. Methods: After ophthalmic examination, patients were subjected to two perimetric tests: BYP and GYP. The visual field (VF) parameters were compared between the two perimeters (p < 0.05 was considered significant). Results: Fifty-five eyes of 39 patients with a mean age of 60.53 ± 9.70 years were included in the study. Twenty-one eyes had clear lens or pseudophakia. Twenty-six eyes had lower grades of nuclear sclerosis (NO2NC2, NO3NC3) and eight eyes had higher grades of cataract (NO4NC4, NO5NC5). The mean retinal sensitivity (RS) in BYP was 22.08 ± 5.02 (dB) and in GYP was 23.84 ± 5.50 (dB) (p = 0.08). The mean defect in BYP was -2.56 ± 4.40 (dB) and in GYP was -3.24 ± 5.05 (dB), pattern standard deviation (PSD) in BYP was 3.65 ± 1.91 (dB) and in GYP was 3.83 ± 1.99 (dB), and foveal threshold (FT) was 24.20 ± 4.32 (dB) in BYP and 28.10 ± 4.50 (dB) in GYP. The two perimeters showed good agreement by the Bland-Altman plot for all parameters. Fourteen eyes showed perimetric changes suggestive of glaucoma by BYP. In these, GYP had a sensitivity of 92.86% (95% CI of 66.13% to 99.82%) and specificity of 95.12% (95% CI of 83.47% to 99.40%). Conclusion: BYP and GYP show good agreement. They are comparable in clear media as well as in different grades of nuclear sclerosis. GYP showed good sensitivity and specificity compared to BYP.
