Incidence Rates and Risk Ratios of Normal Tension Glaucoma in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Population-Based Longitudinal Follow-Up Study.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Several studies have investigated the association between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and ophthalmological complications. However, it remains uncertain whether CRS is independently associated with the development of normal tension glaucoma (NTG). Therefore, this retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the prospective association between CRS and the increased incidence and risk of NTG using a representative population-based dataset. The selection of both the CRS and comparison groups was meticulously conducted through the propensity scoring method. The incidence and risk ratios of NTG were measured using person-years at risk and a weighted Cox proportional hazards model. We enrolled 30,284 individuals without CRS (comparison group) and 15,142 individuals with CRS. The NTG incidence rates were 1.19 and 0.81 in the CRS and comparison groups, respectively. The CRS group showed a significantly increased risk of subsequent development for NTG (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.41, 95% confidence interval = 1.16-1.72), regardless of the CRS subtype. Additionally, the risk of developing NTG was relatively higher in the first 2 years after CRS diagnosis. Moreover, a subgroup analysis revealed a higher risk of NTG in elderly female individuals with CRS. The present findings underscore the importance of monitoring and managing NTG risk in individuals with CRS, especially in elderly female patients.
