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

aimTo compare the fluctuating characteristics, mean value and peak value of intraocular pressure (IOP) between medically and surgically controlled eyes in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) based on a 12-hour daytime diurnal curve (12-DDC) and water drinking test (WDT). Additionally, this study evaluated the consistency of 12-DDC outcomes measured on two separate days.

methodsThis was a cross-sectional observational study. Eligible POAG patients with unilateral medically and contralateral surgically controlled IOP

resultsA total of 21 POAG patients were included, with a mean age of 65.5±7.3y, predominantly male (

conclusionUnder the condition of consistent physiological background affecting IOP circadian variation in the same individual, surgically controlled eyes demonstrate a superior IOP profile with lower fluctuation and peak IOP compared with medically controlled eyes in POAG patients.
