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

Objectives: To evaluate retinal layers, subfoveal choroidal thickness, and optic nerve head parameters in adults with unilateral anisometropic amblyopia using optical coherence tomography. Methods: This comparative cross-sectional study included 41 adults with unilateral anisometropic amblyopia and 35 healthy controls. Optical coherence tomography measurements were obtained from amblyopic eyes, fellow eyes, and control eyes. Retinal analysis included the nerve fiber layer, inner plexiform layer, outer plexiform layer, inner segment/outer segment (IS/OS) junction, retinal pigment epithelium, and subfoveal choroidal thickness. Peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer, ganglion cell complex, mean macular thickness, Bruch's membrane opening, Bruch's membrane opening-minimum rim width, and lamina cribrosa-related parameters were also assessed. Comparisons were performed using linear mixed-effects models, with Bonferroni correction for post hoc analyses. Results: After adjustment for age, significant between-group differences were mainly limited to the IS/OS parameter, mean macular thickness, and selected lamina cribrosa measurements. IS/OS was significantly higher in amblyopic eyes than in control eyes (172.55±42.50 vs 151.26±26.14; overall p=0.029, adjusted p=0.029), whereas mean macular thickness was lower in amblyopic eyes (246.00±20.90 vs 261.99±14.67; overall p=0.015, adjusted p=0.016). Temporal lamina cribrosa curve value (p=0.005), superior lamina cribrosa depth (p=0.016), temporal lamina cribrosa depth (p=0.017), and temporal lamina cribrosa width (p=0.005) also differed significantly after age adjustment. Retinal nerve fiber layer, ganglion cell complex, Bruch's membrane opening, Bruch's membrane opening-minimum rim width, subfoveal choroidal thickness, and lamina cribrosa curvature index showed no significant differences. Conclusion: In adults with unilateral anisometropic amblyopia, structural changes after age adjustment were subtle and region-specific rather than diffuse. The main differences involved the IS/OS parameter, mean macular thickness, and selected lamina cribrosa-related measurements, while other retinal, choroidal, and optic nerve head parameters were largely similar across groups.
