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

objectiveTo evaluate the accuracy of the TONOVET Plus (TVP) and TONOVET Pro (TVPR) in measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) in ex vivo cynomolgus monkey eyes compared to manometry, and to determine the accuracy of Canine and Lapine calibration modes: ANIMALS STUDIED: Five enucleated eyes from three cynomolgus monkeys. PROCEDURES: The anterior chambers were cannulated to regulate IOP manometrically from 5 to 80 mmHg. Agreement between tonometric and manometric readings was analyzed using a linear mixed-effects model (LMM), Lin's concordance correlation coefficient (CCC), and repeated-measures Bland-Altman analysis. Data points at the 80 mmHg manometric setting were excluded to prevent artificial distortion from the devices' maximum display limits.

resultsStrong linear relationships were observed between manometric and tonometric IOPs for all modes. However, the Lapine mode demonstrated proportional overestimation with steeper regression slopes compared to the Canine mode. The Canine mode showed excellent agreement (CCC: 0.967 for TVP, 0.971 for TVPR) with minimal mean bias. In contrast, the Lapine mode exhibited significant positive bias and wider limits of agreement, particularly at higher pressures.

conclusionsBoth TVP and TVPR provided accurate and reliable IOP measurements in cynomolgus monkeys when using the Canine calibration mode. Despite the central corneal thickness of cynomolgus monkeys being closer to that of rabbits, the Lapine mode resulted in significant overestimation and is not recommended. Among the tested settings, the Canine mode provided highly accurate IOP measurements with minimal bias, whereas the Lapine mode significantly overestimated IOP.
