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: Transient increase in intraocular pressure (IOP), changes in anterior chamber parameters, and changes in aqueous humor dynamics may occur after intravitreal injections because of intravitreal volume changes. Objective: In this observational study, we investigated the early effects of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injection on IOP, central corneal thickness (CCT), corneal volume (CV), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and iridocorneal angle (ICA). Method: The patients who had one single-dose IVB (2.5 mg/0.1 mL) injection were included in the study. The patients underwent IOP, CCT, CV, ACD, and ICA measurements before and 1 h and 1 day after the injection. Pre-injection and post-injection values were compared. Results: Forty-two eyes of 42 patients were included in the study, and the mean age of patients was 60.1 ± 7.4 years. The mean IOP measurements before and after injection at 1 h and day 1 were 15 ± 2.4, 17.4 ± 2.4, and 14.7 ± 2.3, respectively. The mean IOP, CCT, and CV values 1 h after injection were significantly higher than pre-injection values ( Conclusion: IVB (2.5 mg/0.1 mL) injection causes transient increases in IOP and transient decreases in ACD and ICA at the first hour after injection. Related to elevation in IOP, CCT and CV may increase transiently. These changes return to baseline values on the first day after injection.
