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
purposeTo examine the influence of aperture size (corneoscleral data coverage) on extrapolated scleral sagittal height data generated by the Pentacam HR derived from the Corneo Scleral Profile (CSP) software, by comparing measurements obtained during natural and retracted eyelid positions.
methodsCorneoscleral topography of the left eye of 20 young (age: 22 [3] years) healthy adults with normal corneas was measured using the Pentacam HR CSP with the eyelids in their natural primary gaze resting position and during eyelid retraction with a wire speculum. The measured and extrapolated sagittal height data were exported from the instrument and analysed over a range of chord diameters (10.0, 12.5, 15.0 and 17.5 mm) and locations (superior, inferior, nasal and temporal) using customised software.
resultsEyelid retraction increased data coverage (% of available data points within 360°) for the 12.5 and 15.0 mm chord diameters (by 25% and 35%, respectively, p < 0.001), but by less than 10% for the 10.0 and 17.5 mm chord diameters. Significant differences in extrapolated sagittal height data were observed between the natural and retracted eyelid positions with respect to chord diameter and location (both p < 0.001), with the greatest difference observed superiorly for a 17.5 mm chord diameter (mean extrapolated sagittal height difference, retracted minus natural: -447 ± 401 μm, p < 0.0001).
conclusionsEyelid retraction substantially increased data coverage for the 12.5 and 15.0 mm chord diameters. Significant differences in the extrapolated sagittal height data generated from measurements obtained during natural and retracted eyelid positions were observed for the superior location (12.5, 15.0 and 17.5 mm chord diameters) and inferior and nasal locations (17.5 mm chord diameter). Extrapolated sagittal height values obtained during the natural eyelid position were typically greater than those obtained with eyelid retraction, most likely due to the amount of measured data available for extrapolation.
