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

Introduction: This study aimed to compare the characteristics and differences in lens position and stability in patients with acute and chronic angle-closure glaucoma (ACG) using ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) to provide a basis for selecting treatment regimens for primary ACG (PACG). Methods: This prospective study included 82 eyes of patients with PACG, of which, 45 eyes with acute PACG (APACG), 37 with chronic PACG (CPACG). Axial length (AL) and lens thickness (LT) were measured using A-scan ultrasonography. Anterior chamber depth (ACD), pupil diameter (PD), and lens vault (LV) were measured using UBM for each group. Additionally, trabecular-iris angle (TIA), angle opening distance (AOD Results: The values for angle-related parameters, including the mean TIA, TIA Conclusion: The APACG eyes had a thicker and more-anteriorly positioned lens than those with CPACG, which results in a shallower anterior chamber and narrower anterior chamber angle. In the APACG group, the lens exhibited nonuniform laxity of the suspensory ligament across the various quadrants, poor stability, and greater susceptibility for anterior displacement or even deviation.
