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

introductionThe aim of this work is to investigate the differences in the measurement of foveal retinal thickness in myopic patients between two display modes (1:1 pixel and 1:1 micron) on optical coherence tomography (OCT).

methodsHorizontal OCT line scan through the central fovea was used for manual measurement of foveal retinal thickness under the two display modes, and the values were compared using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Correlations between the OCT image tilting angle (OCT ITA) and differences in OCT measurement were analyzed by Spearman's test.

results127 participants with a median age of 28 years, a median spherical equivalent (SE) of - 8.5 D, and a median axial length (AL) of 27.04 mm. There were significant differences between the two display modes, with a median absolute difference (median relative difference) of 13.33 μm (2.75%) for the central foveal thickness (CFT), 5.33 μm (1.28%) for the Henle fiber and outer nuclear layer thickness (HFL + ONL), 3 μm (6.47%) for the external limiting membrane to ellipsoid zone distance (ELM-EZ), and 4 μm (8.77%) for the ellipsoid zone to retinal pigment epithelium distance (EZ-RPE) (all p < 0.05). The differences in foveal retinal thickness between the two display modes were significantly correlated with the OCT ITA (r = 0.732 for CFT, 0.561 for HFL + ONL, 0.642 for ELM-EZ, and 0.471 for EZ-RPE, all p < 0.05).

conclusionsDisparities between the two display modes were found in the manual measurement of foveal retinal thickness and correlated to the OCT ITA.
