Eye-Tracking Reading Patterns as Correlates of Clinical Measures in Glaucoma.
Article in Ophthalmic research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe purpose of this study was to make correlations between reading performance patterns - saccades, fixation and reading speed - and functional and structural exams of patients with glaucoma.
methodsA cross-sectional study collected ophthalmologic information of primary glaucoma patients. All patients had at least 0.5 logMAR best corrected visual acuity on the evaluated eye. Aloud reading of five MNREAD slides displayed on computer screen was recorded using ISCAN Eye-Tracker software. Reading speed, number and amplitude of saccades, and number and duration of fixations were collected. Humphrey 24-2 Standard Automated Perimetry (SAP) and Cirrus Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) data were collected to make correlations with all reading patterns.
resultsIn this exploratory analysis, a total of 57 patients with glaucoma were enrolled. Best-corrected visual acuity in the left eye was 0.18 (±0.16) logMAR. Central superior defect in the SAP had the slowest reading speed in all five slides (p < 0.05) and a greater number of saccades (p < 0.05 in three of 5 slides), and thinning of the inferior quadrant in OCT was the most associated with slower reading (p < 0.05 in 2 of five slides) and greater number of fixations (p < 0.05 in one of 5 slides). Peripheral SAP defects had correlation with shorter saccades.
conclusionSAP data had a stronger correlation to reading abnormalities compared to the OCT data. Central superior SAP damage is the most associated with abnormal reading patterns in a computer screen environment. Peripheral SAP injuries correlated with shorter saccades size.
