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

objectivesThis cross sectional study aimed to evaluate the optic disc morphology with respect to the optic disc size, tilt and torsion in eyes of children with congenital glaucoma.

methodsChildren with congenital glaucoma (controlled with therapy), including primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) and those with Axenfeld-Rieger Malformation (ARM) who were now cooperative for fundus photography and scanning laser ophthalmoscopy, were recruited. Controls were age and gender matched children, who were following up at our institute for refractive error or had undergone strabismus surgery before the age of 3 years and were now old enough to cooperate for a fundus photography. Fundus photographs were evaluated using Image J processing software to obtain optic disc tilt and torsion. Axial length (AL) and optic disc area (DA) were correlated with the disc tilt and torsion. The axial length, optic disc area, optic disc tilt, optic disc torsion were compared between affected eyes with PCG with those of healthy controls and the unaffected eyes of unilateral PCG as well as between PCG and those with ARM.

resultsAffected eyes of children with PCG (n = 109) had a DA (2.3 ± 0.7 mm

conclusionDespite axial elongation, the optic disc morphology of children with primary congenital glaucoma are not significantly different from healthy controls.
