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

PRÉCIS: Omidenepag isopropyl is a selective E-prostanoid subtype 2 (EP2) receptor agonist that lowers intraocular pressure. Omidenepag isopropyl 0.002% ophthalmic solution is effective and safe to use at the first diagnosis of primary open angle glaucoma. PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of omidenepag isopropyl 0.002% ophthalmic solution in treatment-naive patients at first diagnosis of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in real-world clinical settings in Korea. PATIENTS AND

methodsIn a single-arm, multicenter, open-label, prospective, phase IV clinical trial, patients with newly diagnosed POAG received omidenepag isopropyl 0.002% (one drop once daily) for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in intraocular pressure (IOP) at week 12. Secondary endpoints included change from baseline in IOP at week 4; change from baseline in IOP at week 12 in a subgroup with normal tension glaucoma (NTG); occurrences, incidence rates and changes from baseline in safety-related indicators (macular edema, endothelial cell count, central corneal thickness, prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy syndrome). Safety was assessed by the occurrence of adverse events (AEs).

resultsThe effectiveness analysis set comprised 37 patients and the safety analysis set 50 patients. Mean IOP decreased from 16.19±2.65 mm Hg at baseline to 13.55±2.46 mm Hg at week 12 (P<0.0001), representing a 16% reduction. Mean reduction in IOP was 15% at week 4 (P<0.0001); and 16% at week 12 (P<0.0001) in the NTG subgroup (n=31). Aside from conjunctival injection, no notable changes were observed in safety-related evaluation indicators. The most common AEs were hyperemia (13 cases) and iridocyclitis (5 cases). No systemic AEs were reported.

conclusionOmidenepag isopropyl 0.002% ophthalmic solution is suitable for first-line use at first diagnosis of POAG, including in patients with NTG.
