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 compare the structure-function relationship of a virtual reality-based visual field test (Radius XR) with standard automated perimetry using either the SITA Fast or SITA Faster strategy, based on peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pp-RNFL) thickness measured by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods: This cross-sectional study included 116 eyes from 71 patients with glaucoma or suspected glaucoma. Participants underwent 24-2 visual field testing with Radius XR (RATA Fast) and a single standard automated perimetry strategy (either SITA Fast or SITA Faster). Peripapillary RNFL thickness was measured with SD-OCT within six months. Global and sectoral structure-function relationships were evaluated using linear mixed-effects models, with visual field locations mapped to corresponding peripapillary RNFL sectors based on the Garway-Heath map. Results: Structure-function associations between global pp-RNFL thickness and mean deviation were observed across testing modalities, with marginal R² values of 0.36 for Radius XR (RATA Fast), 0.43 for SITA Fast, and 0.29 for SITA Faster derived from linear mixed-effects models. Sectoral analyses demonstrated the strongest associations in the supratemporal and inferotemporal regions across all modalities. Conclusions: Radius XR achieved structure-function correlations comparable to standard automated perimetry, particularly in clinically relevant RNFL sectors, supporting its role in glaucoma assessment. Translational Relevance: Virtual reality-based perimetry provides structure-function relationships consistent with standard perimetry while improving accessibility, facilitating broader integration of functional testing into clinical and community-based glaucoma care.
