Evaluation of lamina cribrosa parameters, nerve fiber thickness, and macular thickness in primary open-angle glaucoma and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma using optical coherence tomography.

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
purposeTo evaluate the lamina cribrosa, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), and macula in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEXG) and healthy individuals using enhanced depth imaging (EDI) of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).
methodsA total of 158 eyes were included in the study, comprising 58 eyes of 29 patients with POAG, 50 eyes of 25 patients with PEXG, and 50 eyes of 25 healthy individuals. The lamina cribrosa thickness (LCT) (at three locations), lamina cribrosa depth (LCD), RNFL thickness, and the macular thickness were measured using the EDI mode of the SD-OCT. The results were compared among the three groups.
resultsIn both POAG and PEXG groups, the LCT was significantly thinner in the center, mid-superior, and mid-inferior areas in both eyes than in the control group (p < 0.001). However, no statistically significant difference was observed between the POAG and PEXG groups in terms of LCT at all three measurement locations in both eyes (p > 0.05). The LCD was significantly lower in the control group compared to the POAG and PEXG groups (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the POAG and PEXG groups (p > 0.05). The RNFL thickness was significantly lower in both the POAG and PEXG groups compared to the control group in both eyes (p < 0.05).
conclusionThe LCT and LCD of patients with POAG and PEXG were thinner than those of healthy individuals, but there was no significant difference between the patients with POAG and PEXG.
