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
Purpose: The study aimed to correlate macular ganglion cell layer + inner plexiform layer (GCL + IPL) thickness and circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cRNFL) thickness and to determine the validity of GCL + IPL in the evaluation of glaucoma across different stages using the area under the curve (AUC) analysis in comparison to cRNFL. Patients and Methods: The charts of 260 adult glaucoma suspect and glaucoma patients having macular ganglion cell analysis, optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the cRNFL and automated visual field (AVF) were reviewed. GCL + IPL thickness (average, minimum and sectoral) and sectoral cRNFL thickness were obtained. Glaucomatous eyes were further classified into stages based on the Hodapp-Anderson-Parrish Visual Field Criteria of Glaucoma Severity. AUC analysis was used to compare GCL + IPL parameters with cRNFL in glaucoma suspects and glaucoma patients. Results: A total of 122 eyes were included in the study and were grouped into glaucoma suspects (n = 43), early or mild glaucoma (n = 40), and moderate-to-severe glaucoma (n = 39). Both GCL + IPL and cRNFL thickness parameters showed a significant decline with greater glaucoma severity. In the determination of visual field defects across all glaucoma stages, the highest AUC was obtained by minimum GCL + IPL (AUC = 0.859) with cut-off value at ≤70 µm. Average GCL + IPL had the highest AUC (0.835) in detecting progression from glaucoma suspect to mild glaucoma, while the inferior sector of the cRNFL had the highest AUC (0.937) in discerning mild from moderate-to-severe glaucoma. Conclusion: The results of this study highlight the significance of macular ganglion cell analysis in the screening, detection and staging of glaucoma. Compared to cRNFL, macular ganglion analysis may be more beneficial in glaucoma screening and detecting progression from glaucoma suspect to mild glaucoma.
