Influence of Age, Race, and Corneal Factors on Intraocular Pressure Measurements with Goldmann, Pascal, and Ocular Response Analyzer.

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.
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
Aim and background: To evaluate the influence of age, race, and corneal factors on intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements using Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT), Pascal dynamic contour tonometry (DCT), and the ocular response analyzer (ORA), and to assess their correlation and agreement. Methods: A cross-sectional study included 231 eyes from 125 healthy individuals. Race was self-reported based on Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics criteria. Following anamnesis and ophthalmological examination, ultrasonic pachymetry, corneal curvature, and astigmatism measurements were performed. IOP was measured in random order with GAT, DCT, and ORA by a single examiner. Corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF) were also assessed. Results: Age had no significant effect on tonometry readings. Race influenced only GAT measurements, with differences between mixed-race and Black ( Conclusions: Age did not impact IOP measurements. Race influenced only GAT readings. Corneal properties variably affected all tonometry methods. Although the devices showed strong correlation, the agreement was moderate, highlighting the importance of considering corneal factors and device selection when evaluating IOP. Clinical significance: The study shows that corneal features can affect IOP readings, especially with Goldmann tonometry. Age did not affect the results, and race had a small effect on Goldmann only. Devices correlated strongly but were not interchangeable due to wide limits of agreement. This means eye doctors should consider the type of device and corneal factors when checking IOP.
