Evaluation of Eyelid, Angle, and Anterior Segment Parameters Using Scheimpflug Camera and Topography System in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome.
Article in Beyoglu eye journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objectives: The purpose of the study was to investigate the eyelid hyperlaxity, anterior segment, and corneal topographic parameters in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) using Scheimpflug camera and topography system. Methods: In this prospective and cross-sectional clinical study, 32 eyes of 32 patients with OSAS and thirty-two eyes of 32 healthy subjects were evaluated. The participants with OSAS were selected from those with an apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 15. The minimum corneal thickness (ThkMin), apical corneal thickness (ACT), central corneal thickness (CCT), pupillary diameter (PD), aqueous depth (AD), aqueous volume (AV), anterior chamber angle (ACA), horizontal anterior chamber diameter (HACD), corneal volume (CV), simulated K readings (sim-K), front and back corneal keratometric values at 3 mm, RMS/A values, highest point of ectasia on the anterior and posterior corneal surface (KVf, KVb), symmetry indices and keratoconus measurements were taken by combined Scheimpflug-Placido corneal topography and compared with healthy subjects. Upper eyelid hyperlaxity (UEH) and floppy eyelid syndrome were also evaluated. Results: There were no statistically significant difference between groups in terms of age, gender, PD, ACT, CV, HACD, simK readings, front and back keratometric values, RMS/A-KVf and KVb values, symmetry indices, and keratoconus measurements (p>0.05). ThkMin, CCT, AD, AV, and ACA values were significantly higher in OSAS group compared to the control (p<0.05). UEH was detected in two cases in the control group (6.3%) and in 13 cases in the OSAS group (40.6%) and the difference was significant (p<0.001). Conclusion: The anterior chamber depth, ACA, AV, CCT, and UEH increase in OSAS. These ocular morphological changes occurring in OSAS may explain why these patients prones to normotensive glaucoma.
