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

purposeThis study investigated topographic, aberrometric, and endothelial cell characteristics of the cornea in Fabry disease and compared them to healthy eyes.

methodsThis prospective, cross-sectional study included 21 patients with Fabry disease and 41 healthy volunteers in Fabry disease (FG) and control (CG) groups, respectively. After ophthalmological examinations, the topographic, tomographic, and aberrometric corneal data were acquired using a Scheimpflug-Placido disk system anterior segment analysis device. The corneal endothelial examination was conducted using a specular microscopy device, and results were compared. A p-values of < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.

resultsNo significant differences were noted between the age and gender of the groups (p > 0.05). Central and thinnest corneal thickness were significantly lower in the FG than in the CG (p = 0.036 and 0.023, respectively). Although the aberrometric values of the cornea were usually higher in the FG, this difference was not significant. No significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding corneal endothelial data examined by specular microscopy. When the eye data with cornea verticillata in the FG were compared with those of the CG, anterior higher-order aberrations (HOA) were significantly higher in the FG (p = 0.047) than in the CG.

conclusionsCornea verticillata associated with Fabry disease can increase HOA in the eye.
