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

backgroundPhytocannabinoids have the potential to lower intraocular pressure in both normal and glaucomatous eyes and they have been tested in different animal species, but not in the horse. The present paper describes the tonometric curve of healthy adult Italian Saddle horses after oral administration of cannabidiol oil (CBD).

methodsCBD 20% was administered orally (oily solution) at the dose of 1 mg/kg to 8 adult horses and intraocular pressure (IOP) was evaluated by tonometric curve. Data were then compared to those of the same horses obtained the day before (blank) CBD administration.

results15 minutes after CBD administration, IOP (time zero 27.3 ± 2.1 mmHg right eye; 24.6 ± 2.3 mmHg left eye) started to decrease (19.5 ± 5.2 mmHg right eye; 20.8 ± 2.4 mmHg left eye) and 1 hour later CBD it reached the minimum level in all horses (11.4 ± 7.5 mmHg right eye; 9.5 ± 5.8 mmHg left eye), remaining statistically significantly lower than normal values for the entire observation period (8 hours; 12.0 ± 7.9 mmHg right eye; 11.9 ± 7.8 mmHg left eye).

conclusionsCBD 20% was effective to significantly reduce IOP in healthy adult Italian Saddle horses and may be an effective hypotensive agent to be implemented in case of primary or secondary glaucoma.
