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

The present study aimed to determine how the vascular density (VD) in each segment peripapillary influences the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and to eliminate its contribution to RNFL in pathological intraocular pressure (IOP). In a cohort of 69 subjects (mean age, 45±6 years old) with untreated ocular hypertension (122 eyes in total) enrolled in this study, Ocular Response Analyser IOP was measured during routine outpatient care. Its value was >21 (range, 21-36) mmHg in all eyes. Furthermore, peripapillary VD and RNFL were measured using optical coherence tomography in the following eight segments: Inferior temporal (segment 1); temporal inferior (segment 2); temporal superior (segment 3); superior temporal (segment 4); superior nasal (segment 5); nasal superior (segment 6); nasal inferior (segment 7); and inferior nasal (segment 8). The visual field examination was performed with the fast threshold glaucoma program using the Medmont M 700. The overall defect was evaluated. Person's correlation coefficient was used to assess the correlation between VD and IOP. The largest changes were observed in peripapillary segments 1, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. The second part of the work was to eliminate the contribution of VD to RNFL. The partial correlation coefficient r was used to adjust RNFL from VD to assess the dependence between the selected parameters. The largest changes in RNFL were in segments 5 and 8 after they had been 'cleaned' of peripapillary VD. In conclusion, the present study revealed that the largest changes in RNFL after VD adjustment were observed for the incipient hypertensive glaucoma in segments 5 and 8.
