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

backgroundThe global prevalence of high myopia is rising, posing a significant public health concern. Limited research exists on risk factors for prelaminar schisis (PLS) and its impact on visual field changes in highly myopic eyes. Herein, we investigated clinical features of prelaminar schisis (PLS) in highly myopic eyes.

methodsThis cross-sectional study included 245 eyes with high myopia and 64 eyes with emmetropia and low myopia. PLS was classified on a 3-point scale (0-2), and clinical characteristics were compared between two groups and three sub-groups. Factors associated with PLS presence and severity were evaluated in highly myopic eyes.

resultsHighly myopic eyes had a higher frequency (P = 0.008) and severity (P = 0.001) of PLS than controls. Among them, 33.47% (82/245) had Grade 0, 56.33% (138/245) had Grade 1, and 10.20% (25/245) had Grade 2. The presence of Bergmeister papilla (OR = 2.181, 95% CI: 1.080-4.406, P = 0.030), larger Bruch's membrane opening (BMO) (OR = 1.927, 95% CI: 1.279-2.904, P = 0.002) and longer axial length (OR = 1.723, 95% CI: 1.186-2.499, P = 0.004) correlated with PLS severity. Eyes with Grade 2 PLS were more prone to visual field defect than eyes with Grade 0 (P = 0.005) and Gade 1 (P = 0.013) PLS.

conclusionBergmeister papilla presence, larger BMO, and longer axial length were associated with the PLS severity, suggesting ONH prelaminar schisis may indicate traction and myopic deformation of the ONH. PLS with peripapillary retinoschisis suggests a possibility of functional damage.
