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

PRÉCIS: Preservative-free omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI) 0.002% ophthalmic solution and OMDI 0.002% ophthalmic solution preserved with benzalkonium chloride (BAK) were bioequivalent in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) after 4 weeks' treatment in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT).

objectivePreservatives in ophthalmic solutions for lowering IOP are associated with ocular surface disease. The DAISY study evaluated the bioequivalence of preservative-free OMDI 0.002% ophthalmic solution (DE-117B), with OMDI 0.002% preserved with BAK.

methodsDAISY was a phase 3, randomized, evaluator-masked, crossover study conducted in Japan. Patients with POAG or OHT were randomized 1:1 to DE-117B or OMDI 0.002% for 4 weeks (period 1) and then crossed over for 4 weeks (period 2). A 4-week washout preceded both periods. The primary efficacy endpoint was mean diurnal (MD) IOP at week 4 (combined periods 1 and 2). Bioequivalence between DE-117B and OMDI was defined as a 95% CI between -1.5 and 1.5 for least squares mean between-group difference in MD IOP. Adverse events were monitored.

resultsOf 74 patients enrolled, 38 were randomized to DE-117B, then OMDI, and 36 were randomized to OMDI then DE-117B. DE-117B and OMDI demonstrated bioequivalence at week 4 [MD IOP ± SD in summary statistics: 17.76 ± 2.05 mm Hg (DE-117B) vs 17.71 ± 2.01 mm Hg (OMDI); least squares mean ± SE between-group difference in linear mixed effect model: -0.02 ± 0.18 mm Hg (95% CI: -0.38 to 0.35)]. DE-117B versus OMDI was associated with numerically lower overall ocular discomfort.

conclusionsPreservative-free DE-117B and BAK-containing OMDI were bioequivalent in lowering IOP after 4 weeks' treatment in Japanese patients with POAG or OHT. DE-117B was well tolerated with a similar safety profile to OMDI.
