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

We investigated the difference in optical coherence tomography angiography characteristics between the patients with compressive optic neuropathy (CON, n = 26) and glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON, n = 26), who were matched for the severity of visual field defect. The peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) thickness in the nasal and temporal sectors was thinner in the CON group, whereas the inferior pRNFL thickness was thinner in the GON group. Accordingly, the CON group had lower peripapillary vessel density (pVD) in the nasal and temporal sectors, and the GON group in the inferior sector. In the macular area, the CON group had a thinner macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer in the superior and nasal sectors, whereas the GON group in the inferior sector. However, the CON group did not have a lower macular VD than the GON group in any sector, whereas the GON group exhibited lower superficial capillary plexus VD in the superior, inferior, and temporal sectors. Comparison of the structure-vasculature correlation revealed a significant difference in the nasal and temporal peripapillary areas and superior and nasal macular sectors; a decrease in VD was greater in the GON group than in the CON group when the comparable structural change occurred.
