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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to compare ganglion cell complex and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness between pregnant females with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and healthy pregnant females. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was a single-center, prospective, analytical cross-sectional study including pregnant females with a gestational age of 24 weeks or more in the GDM and control groups. The GDM group included 162 pregnant females with GDM, and the control group included 162 healthy pregnant females. Peripapillary RNFL (pRNFL), macular RNFL (mRNFL), GCL+ (ganglion cell layer [GCL] + inner plexiform layer [IPL]), and GCL++ (mRNFL + GCL + IPL) thickness were analyzed using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT), and comparisons were made between the groups.

resultsBoth the groups had similar mean age (

conclusionOur study showed that OCT plays an indispensable role in determining initial retinal changes caused by GDM before the development of diabetic retinopathy.
