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

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of steady state pattern electroretinogram (ss-PERG) in detecting retinal ganglion cell (RGC) dysfunction in glaucoma suspects (GS) who had normal 24-2 Humphrey Visual Fields (HFA). Materials and Methods: This was a prospective cohort study of GS patients who were identified based on optic disc appearance with normal HFAs. Patients received a complete eye examination, standard automated perimetry (SAP), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and ss-PERG measurements. The ss-PERG parameters, Magnitude (Mag), Magnitude D (MagD), and MagD/Mag ratio, were examined, along with their relationships between HFA and OCT measurements. Results: Twenty-five patients were included in this study, with a total of 49 eyes. Fifteen eyes had abnormal ss-PERG parameters and when compared to GS eyes with normal ss-PERG parameters, there were significant differences in HFA 24-2, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, and ganglion cell layer and inner plexiform layer (GCL + IPL) thickness. All ss-PERG parameters were significantly correlated with 24-2 VF mean deviation (MD) and visual field index (VFI), as well as 10-2 VF MD after controlling for age, sex, intraocular pressure, central corneal thickness, and spherical equivalent. When controlled for age, spherical equivalent, and IOP, MagD/Mag ratio significantly contributed to the variance in average GCL + IPL thicknesses, whereas 24-2 VF MD and 10-2 VF MD did not. MagD/Mag ratio also significantly accounted for variance in all macular GCL + IPL sectors, while 10-2 VF MD did not. Conclusions: ss-PERG has significant correlations with HFA global indices and was predictive of GCL + IPL thickness in GS patients.
