Estimation of Topical Glaucoma Medication Over-Prescription and Its Associated Factors.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This study aims to report the disparity between the ideal and actual quantities of eyedrops prescribed to individual glaucoma patients. This retrospective observational study included 676 patients receiving treatment with antiglaucoma topical medication(s) in at least one eye. These patients had follow-up appointments scheduled at mean intervals of 3.4 ± 1.4 months and were actively using antiglaucoma medication. The mean age was 70.4 ± 11.9 years, with 372 (55%) being male. The over-prescription volume was 1.4 ± 1.7 bottles per month for each medication when prescribed for both eyes. Multiple regression analysis revealed that older age (
