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

purposeTo evaluate mid term changes in anterior segment parameters and to retinal layers by optical coherence tomography(OCT) in primary angle-closure suspected(PACS) after laser peripheral iridotomy(LPI).

methodsFor this retrospective study, 26 eyes of 26 subjects diagnosed with PACS and 20 eyes of 20 age and sex matched healthy people were enrolled. Anterior segment parameters [anterior chamber depth(ACD), anterior chamber volume(ACV), iridocorneal angle(ICA), central corneal thickness(CCT)] measured on Scheimpflug-Placido disc topography system and macular retinal thickness, peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL) thickness and macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GC-IPL) thickness measured on OCT. All the tests were repeated 1 month and 1 year after LPI.

resultsThere was no significant difference between the groups in terms of age and gender. Anterior segment parameters during 1 year ACV, ICA increased, and CCT decreased significantly after LPI(p = 0.038, p = 0.038, and p = 0.020 respectively). A significant thinning of the inner inferior, outer nasal quadrants and the average of all quadrants of the retina was observed (p = 0.001, p = 0.009, and p = 0.001, respectively). The superior GC-IPL thinning was significant(p = 0.037). There was no significant change in the RNFL quadrants at the end of 1 year.

conclusionIntraocular pressure can be kept under control with close follow-up in PACS cases and possible progression risk can be reduced by using tools such as laser peripheral iridotomy.
