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

Introduction: This report describes a case of elevated intraocular pressure following the use of 0.125% atropine eye drops in a child wearing orthokeratology lenses. Case Presentation: A 9-year-old boy presented to our clinic with myopia, and he had been wearing orthokeratology lenses overnight for 23 months. He was treated previously with a once-daily administration of topical 0.125% atropine eye drops to reduce myopic progression. Three days after treatment, his intraocular pressure was 36 mm Hg in the right eye and 32 mm Hg in the left eye. Two days after the discontinuation of atropine eye drops and overnight orthokeratology lenses, the intraocular pressure was 18/20 mm Hg in both eyes. Conclusion: Low-dose atropine eye drops can cause intraocular pressure elevation in patients wearing overnight orthokeratology lenses. Although it may resolve promptly, short-term follow-up with intraocular pressure checks may be necessary for the early diagnosis and treatment of this complication.
