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

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber volume (ACV), and iridocorneal angle (ICA) of the eyes of patients with non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) and normal eyes. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 28 patients with NAION who were admitted to our institution were examined. Central corneal thickness (CCT), ACV, ACD, and ICA of all eyes were measured using corneal topography (Sirius, CSO, Italy). Axial lengths (ALs) were measured using an IOL-Master 500 (Carl Zeiss, Meditec). The eyes of these patients were compared with the eyes of 29 healthy individuals of similar age and gender. Results: The mean ALs of the eyes with NAION and those in the control group were not statistically different, measuring 22.95 ± 0.68 mm and 23.13 ± 0.80mm, respectively (p=0.651). While the average ACV was 137.93 ± 41.01 mm Conclusion: Differences in anterior segment morphology were observed in eyes with NAION compared to healthy eyes. Decreased ACV may be a risk factor for NAION.
