The TsiogkaSpaeth grid in Indian patients with primary open-angle glaucoma: A cross-sectional diagnostic accuracy study.
Article in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 the diagnostic accuracy of an innovative visual field grid tool, the TsiogkaSpaeth (TS) Grid, in detecting visual field defects in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and to compare its performance with standard automated perimetry.
methodsThis hospital-based cross-sectional study included 51 participants (73 eyes) with POAG and age-matched controls. All participants underwent comprehensive ophthalmic evaluation, TS Grid testing, and Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer (HFA) 24-2 SITA Standard testing as the reference standard. Diagnostic accuracy parameters including sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were calculated. Correlations between TS Grid scores and standard automated perimetry indices (mean deviation [MD], pattern standard deviation [PSD], visual field index [VFI]) were analyzed.
resultsThe TS Grid demonstrated a sensitivity of 91.7%, a specificity of 89.2%, PPV of 89.2%, and NPV of 91.7%. The area under the ROC curve was 0.904, indicating excellent diagnostic accuracy. TS Grid scores showed strong positive correlation with MD and VFI and a negative correlation with PSD ( P < 0.001).
conclusionThe TS Grid is a reliable, low-cost, and portable tool for visual field assessment in POAG. Its high diagnostic accuracy and ease of use make it a valuable adjunct for screening and functional evaluation, particularly in resource-limited settings.
