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: This study presents a novel, three-dimensional method for measuring the tilt angle of the tilted optic disc (TOD) using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and investigates the correlation between ocular-related parameters and TOD. Methods: We included the right eyes of 243 healthy young individuals, categorized by axial length. We measured the ovality index (OI) and dihedral angle (DA) using SD-OCT infrared ray fundus photographs and high-resolution cross-sectional images of the optic disc, respectively. The relationships between OI, DA, and ocular-related parameters were analyzed. Results: Eyes in the longer axial length group exhibited a lower OI and a higher DA, along with thinner nasal and inferonasal circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cpRNFL) and thicker temporal and superotemporal cpRNFL. There was a significant relationship between DA and cpRNFL thickness. The new method utilizing DA to measure the tilt angle of TOD demonstrated high repeatability. Conclusions: We propose a novel, three-dimensional, and quantitative method for evaluating the tilt degree of TOD. A higher degree of myopia indicated a greater tilt angle of the TOD, and a greater TOD suggested additional changes in cpRNFL thickness. These findings should be considered when interpreting increased susceptibility and early assessment of glaucoma in myopia. Translational Relevance: DA could serve as a superior indicator for describing TOD morphology during eyeball elongation and evaluating its impact on related parameters of the optic disc and peripapillary structures in the myopic population.
