Topographic factors associated with anterior chamber angle narrowing in patients with keratoconus.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimTo identify topographic determinants of the anterior chamber angle (ACA) in patients with keratoconus (KCN).
methodsFour hundred and ten eyes of 294 patients with KCN were recruited for this study. First, complete ocular examinations were performed for all patients, including visual acuity measurement, refraction, and slit-lamp biomicroscopy. Then, all participants underwent corneal imaging by the Oculus Pentacam HR.
resultsThe mean age of the participants was 32.40±8.52y (15-60y) and 69.5% of them were male. The mean ACA was 38.47°±5.75° (range: 14.40° to 56.50°) in the whole sample, 38.24°±6.00° in males, and 38.98°±5.11° in females (
conclusionThis study provides critical insights into the risk factors for ACA narrowing in KCN patients, which is essential for planning intraocular surgeries. Patients with nipple and central cones exhibited the most significant ACA narrowing. Additionally, more negative Q-values are associated with increased ACA narrowing, highlighting the need for targeted diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
