Predictive Value of Dynamic Corneal Response Parameters Evaluated with Scheimpflug High-Speed Video (Corvis ST) on the Visual Field Progression in Prostaglandin Treated Ocular Hypertension and Open-Angle Glaucoma Patients.
Article in Ophthalmology and therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionThe aim of this work is to compare the Corvis ST stress-strain index (SSI) and highest concavity (HC) parameters at baseline and 1 month after initiating monotherapy with prostaglandin analogues (PGs) in eyes showing visual field (VF) progression or stability.
methodsIn this prospective, single-center, observational study, newly diagnosed and treatment-naïve OAG patients were examined at baseline and 1 month after beginning monotherapy with topical PGs monotherapy. Goldmann applanation tonometry pressure readings, Corneal Hysteresis (ORA-CH), and the Corvis ST measurements were obtained at both visits. VF progression (Humphrey) was evaluated based on data from 6 years of follow-up after the baseline visit. Stress-strain index (SSI) and HC parameters in progressing (P) and non-progressing (NP) eyes were the main outcome measures.
resultsSixty-three eyes were analyzed; mean age was 64.63 ± 11.26 years; 47 eyes were NP and 16 eyes were P according to the event analysis performed by the Humphrey device. There were no significant differences in IOP, CCT, or Corvis parameters between NP and P groups at baseline. Nevertheless, at 1 month, the SSI index was 1.60 ± 0.34 vs. 1.80 ± 0.34 (p = 0.003) in NP vs. P eyes, respectively. HC parameters were different between the groups at 1 month (p < 0.05) suggesting an increased scleral rigidity in the P group. There was no significant difference in IOP between groups at 1 month.
conclusionsThe Corvis ST provides a corneal rigidity index (SSI) that seems to be related to VF progression when measured 1 month after initiating PGs monotherapy. Differences in HC parameters, indicative of increased scleral stiffness, are also evident at 1 month on latanoprost in the P eyes.
