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

objectiveAnions in tears may be related to the pathogenesis of ocular surface diseases. A comprehensive method that can detect small quantities of anions in human tears has been developed. However, the differences in individual anion concentrations between tears and plasma remain unclear. This study investigated anion concentrations in dog tears.

methodsTo compare anion concentrations between tear and plasma samples in canines, 12 eyes of six healthy purpose-bred research Beagles (unneutered males, 3 years old) were investigated. Additionally, the tears of canines with various diseases were examined. PROCEDURE: Anion concentrations were assessed using a commercially available ion chromatography system. For this, at least 10 μL of tears were collected in a glass capillary tube and diluted with 300 μL of distilled water; plasma was obtained by centrifuging collected blood samples, which were then diluted 100-fold before chromatography.

resultsAnion concentrations differed significantly between the tears and plasma of Beagles. The average concentrations (mg/L) of anions in tears of Beagles were as follows: Cl
