Assessment of changes in optic disc parameters and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in myopic patients and its correlation with axial length and degree of myopia.

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.
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: The present study aimed to assess the changes in optic disc and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) parameters in myopic patients and its correlation with axial length (AL) and spherical equivalent (SE) using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods: This was a cross-sectional study carried out from August 2019 to September 2021 in the ophthalmology department of a tertiary care hospital in eastern India. Myopic patients in the age group of 20-40 years and SE between - 0.5 to - 10 Diopters (D) were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups on the basis of degree of myopia and AL. Appropriate statistical analysis was done at the end of the study period. Results: The study included 307 eyes of 307 myopic patients. There were 181 females (58.96%) and 126 males (41.04%). The mean age of the patients enrolled for the study was 28.78 ± 5.76 years. Statistically significant difference (P < 0.001) was found between SE and AL in between the subgroups of A and B. With every 1 D increase in SE, the average peripapillary RNFL thickness decreased by 0.61 μ while with every 1 mm increase in AL, the average peripapillary RNFL thickness was found to reduce by 1.03 μ. Conclusion: Analysis of optic nerve head parameters and RNFL thickness by OCT for the diagnosis should be compared with a normative control group that has been matched for refractive error and AL instead of comparison with a normative database that has only been age matched.
