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: To analyze the risk factors associated with previously undiagnosed primary glaucoma. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among residents aged 50 years and older in primary health care centers in Yinzhou District, China, from November 26, 2020, to December 3, 2021. Participants underwent various screening procedures. Patients with suspected glaucoma and other ocular abnormalities were referred to Yinzhou People's Hospital for further examination, diagnosis and treatment. We integrated ophthalmic screening data with the Yinzhou Regional Health Information Platform (YRHIP). Results: A total of 344 patients aged 50 years or older were diagnosed with primary glaucoma, including 142 (41.3%) previously undiagnosed patients. Among the 191 patients with primary angle-closure diseases and the 153 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, 87 (45.5%) and 55 (35.9%), respectively, were previously undiagnosed. According to the multivariable models, the factors significantly associated with decreased odds of having previously undiagnosed glaucoma at the time of screening were older age (all Conclusion: Younger age, longer duration since the last eye care visit, better PVA, smaller VCDR, and normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) were all significantly associated with an increased likelihood of previously undiagnosed primary glaucoma.
