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/

objectivesTo analyse retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) defect measurements obtained from red-free fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) en face imaging, respectively, and to compare them for the strength of the structure-function association. SUBJECTS/

methodsTwo hundred and fifty-six glaucomatous eyes of 256 patients with localized RNFL defect on red-free fundus photography were enrolled. A subgroup analysis included 81 highly myopic eyes (≤ -6.0 dioptres). Angular width of RNFL defect was compared between red-free fundus photography (i.e., red-free RNFL defect) and OCT en face imaging (i.e., en face RNFL defect). The correlation between angular width of each RNFL defect and functional outcomes, reported as mean deviation (MD) and pattern standard deviation (PSD), were assessed and compared.

resultsThe angular width of en face RNFL defect was measured smaller than that of red-free RNFL defect in 91.0% eyes (mean difference, 19.98°). The association of en face RNFL defect with MD and PSD was stronger (R

conclusionsEn face RNFL defect showed a higher correlation with severity of visual field loss than did red-free RNFL defect. The same dynamic was observed for highly myopic eyes.
