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

The intraocular pressure (IOP) ranges of premature newborns are not the same as those in full-term newborns and adult population. The exact ranges and causes, however, differ depending on the measurement techniques used and analysis. Our study aimed to summarize and analyze available information in the up-to-date literature concerning IOP values in premature newborns. We performed a systematic literature review with meta-analysis. Our research showed the mean IOP in premature newborns to range from 10 to 29 mmHg according to different authors, and its mean values were higher in premature compared to full-term newborns. The most commonly analyzed factor that probably affected IOP measurement was central corneal thickness. Longitudinal studies showed that IOP and central corneal thickness declined with maturation of the newborn and both factors were probably correlated. Additional studies with larger sample sizes and better differentiated sample groups need to be performed.
