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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to present the clinical outcomes of IOP monitoring in and out of office time and determine its value in our clinical practice. MATERIAL AND

methodsWe reviewed the records of 1500 patients (glaucoma suspects or glaucoma patients), who were admitted for IOP monitoring during almost 12 years. All patients were hospitalized because their within-office-hours exams were considered inadequate and inconclusive for decision making.

resultsA total of 744 patients (49.6% out of 1500) needed change of treatment. A total of 121 patients (8% out of 1500) were programmed for interventional therapy (laser or surgery). A total of 68 patients (4.5% out of 1500) were declassified as overdiagnosed and overtreated. In 250 patients (16.7% out of 1500), hidden adherence problem appeared. In 720 patients (48% out of 1500), peak IOP occurred during out-of-office hours.

conclusionsIOP phasing is a useful tool in clinical practice. In many cases with inconclusive diagnosis, as well as in patients with advanced or labile glaucomas, IOP monitoring data add complementary information, useful for decision making, and may contribute not only to diagnosis and successful IOP modulation, but also in personalized therapeutic strategy and individual patients' motivation.
