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
purposeLittle is known about the effects of ambient atmospheric pressure (AP) on intraocular pressure (IOP) under ordinary conditions. This study aimed to investigate the effects of AP on Goldmann applanation tonometer-measured IOP (GAT-IOP) in normal eyes under everyday atmospheric conditions adjusting for effects of possible confounding factors including other climatic factors.
methodsData obtained from 2,431 normal healthy eyes of 2,431 subjects (mean age: 56.9 years) who participated in this population-based glaucoma survey in Japan were analyzed via multivariable linear regression analysis, where the GAT-IOP was the response variable; explanatory variables were the ocular and systemic factors and calendar factors reportedly correlated with GAT-IOP as well as AP, relative humidity, temperature, wind speed, and weather. The Bonferroni correction was adopted to obtain P values.
resultsOnly AP of the outside air when each subject was examined was positively correlated with GAT-IOP (regression coefficient (RC) = 0.0460; P = 0.0051). Central corneal thickness, body mass index, and systolic blood pressure were positively correlated (RC = 0.0133, 0.0754, 0.0131; P < 0.0001, P < 0.0001, P = 0.0016, respectively), and corneal curvature radius and age were negatively correlated (RC=-0.7017, -0.0225; P = 0.0144, P = 0.0111, respectively) with GAT-IOP. The seasonal effect on GAT-IOP was also significant (P < 0.0001), and in reference to winter, summer was correlated with lower GAT-IOP and spring was correlated with higher GAT-IOP (RC=-0.5133, 0.4590; P = 0.0087, P = 0.0001, respectively).
conclusionsAP was found to have a significantly positive correlation with GAT-IOP in normal healthy eyes under ordinary conditions, though the actual impact of AP on IOP in normal individuals under ordinary conditions would be minimal.
