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

aimUtilizing a combination of micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and anatomical techniques for the volumetric assessment of the eyeball and its constituents in Bama Miniature Pigs, New Zealand rabbits, and Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats.

methodSix Bama Miniature pigs, New Zealand rabbits, and SD rats were enrolled in the study. Micro-CT and gross volumetric estimation of ocular volume were employed to acquire data on ocular volume, anterior chamber volume, lens volume, and vitreous cavity volume for each eye.

resultsThe eyeball volume of pigs ranges from approximately 5.36 ± 0.27 to 5.55 ± 0.28 ml, the lens volume from approximately 0.33 ± 0.02 to 0.37 ± 0.06 ml, the anterior chamber volume from approximately 0.19 ± 0.05 to 0.28 ± 0.04 ml, and the vitreous volume is approximately 3.20 ± 0.18 ml. For rabbits, the eye volume, lens volume, anterior chamber volume, and vitreous volume range from approximately 3.02 ± 0.24 to 3.04 ± 0.24 ml, 0.41 ± 0.02 to 0.44 ± 0.02 ml, 0.23 ± 0.04 to 0.26 ± 0.05 ml, and 1.54 ± 0.14 ml, respectively. In SD rats, the volumes are 0.14 ± 0.02 to 0.15 ± 0.01 ml for the eyeball, 0.03 ± 0.00 to 0.03 ± 0.00 ml for the lens, 0.01 ± 0.00 to 0.01 ± 0.01 ml for the anterior chamber, and 0.04 ± 0.01 ml for the vitreous volume.

conclusionThe integration of micro-CT and gross volumetric estimation of ocular volume proves effective in determining the eyeball volume in Bama Miniature Pigs, New Zealand rabbits, and SD rats. Understanding the volume distinctions within the eyeballs and their components among these experimental animals can lay the groundwork for ophthalmology-related drug research.
