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

This study aimed to assess the effect of intraocular pressure (IOP) changes on biometry and intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in patients diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and ocular hypertension (OHT). This prospective non-randomized cohort study enrolled patients with diagnosed POAG and OHT, presenting with IOP levels exceeding 25 mmHg. Thai Clinical Trials Registry number was TCTR20180912007. Optical biometry, encompassing measurements such as corneal thickness (CCT), keratometry, anterior chamber depth (ACD), and axial length, was conducted before and after IOP reduction. The IOL power was also determined using the SRK/T formula. The main outcomes measured were alterations in biometry and IOL power. Correlations between IOP, biometric parameters, and IOL power were analyzed. In total, 28 eyes were included in the study, with a mean patient age of 65.71±10.2 years. After IOP reduction, all biometric parameters, except CCT and ACD, exhibited a decrease without reaching statistical significance (all p>0.05). Meanwhile, IOL power showed a slight increase of 0.214±0.42 diopters (P = 0.035). The correlation between IOP and biometric parameters was found to be weak. However, there was a moderate correlation between IOP and IOL power (r2 = 0.267). Notably, IOL power tended to increase by more than 0.5 diopters when IOP decreased by more than 10 mmHg (p < 0.001). In conclusion, changes in IOP among patients with POAG and OHT do not significantly impact biometry and IOL power calculations. Nonetheless, it may be prudent to consider a slight adjustment in IOL power when IOP is lowered by more than 10 mmHg.
