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: Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) by a swept source can visualize the ciliary body. The study was performed for analyzing the feasibility of a new swept-source OCT (Anterion) device for measuring iris ciliary sulcus, ciliary body thickness, and iris thickness. Methods: It is a pilot study among 30 normal young participants and hospital employees with their consent. The ciliary body, iris thickness, and ciliary sulcus were measured and compared to the results in the literature. We obtained 28 good-quality results. The main outcome measures were iris thickness (near and away from the pupillary margin), ciliary body thickness, and iridociliary sulcus measurement. Results: The iris thickness 2.5 mm from the pupillary margin was 0.70 ± 0.10 mm in the right eye and 0.68 ± 0.11 in the left eye. Closer to the root, the iris thickness varied from 0.55 ± 0.16 mm (right eye) and 0.57 ± 0.12 (left eye). Ciliary body thickness: Right eye 0.59 ± 0.14mm (28 good images), left eye 0.58 ± 0.13mm; ciliary sulcus (inner angle): right eye 82.65 ± 26.6°, left eye 83.66 ± 30.1°. Conclusion: Anterion OCT is feasible in our setting for various measurements and can provide valuable inputs to ophthalmologists for the treatment of ocular diseases.
