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 aimed to compare morphological differences of the neuroretinal rim between the temporally tilted and non-tilted optic discs in healthy eyes. We prospectively enrolled participants aged 20-40 years with temporally tilted or non-tilted optic discs. The optic nerve head parameters were analyzed using spectral domain-optical coherence tomography. The angle between the Bruch's membrane opening (BMO) plane and BMO-minimum rim width (BMO-MRW) was termed "BMO-MRW angle". Peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (pRNFLT) and BMO-based parameters were compared between the temporally tilted and non-tilted disc groups. As a result, 55 temporally tilted disc eyes and 38 non-tilted disc eyes were analyzed. Global pRNFLT, global BMO-MRW, and total BMO-minimum rim area (BMO-MRA) were similar between the two groups (p = 0.138, 0.161, and p = 0.410, respectively). In the sectoral analysis, temporally tilted disc group exhibited thicker BMO-MRW in the temporal sector (p = 0.032) and thinner in the nasal superior and nasal sectors (p = 0.025 and p = 0.002, respectively). Temporally tilted disc group showed larger BMO-MRA in the temporal, temporal superior, and temporal inferior sectors (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p < 0.016, respectively), alongside a higher BMO-MRW angle in the temporal sector and lower in the nasal superior and nasal sectors. In conclusion, the neuroretinal rim, represented by BMO-MRW and BMO-MRA, showed morphological differences between temporally tilted and non-tilted optic discs in healthy eyes. BMO-MRW and BMO-MRA showed temporalization in the same manner as pRNFLT in the temporally tilted disc eyes. The BMO-MRW angle showed that in temporally tilted disc eyes, optic nerve fibers met the BMO plane steeply in the nasal sector and gently in the temporal sector than in non-tilted disc eyes, suggesting potential stress region of optic nerve fibers in temporally tilted disc eyes.
