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

purposeTo investigate the relationship between the characteristics of optic disc rotation and visual field (VF) progression in patients with myopic open-angle glaucoma (OAG).

methodsWe included 53 eyes from 53 myopic OAG patients who were followed-up over a 3-year period. The characteristics of optic disc rotation including the degree of optic disc rotation, direction of optic disc rotation, and optic disc rotation-VF defect correspondence were investigated. The rates of global and regional VF progression were compared with different characteristics of optic disc rotation.

resultsThirty-seven eyes (69.8%) showed inferior optic disc rotation and 41 (77.4%) eyes showed optic disc rotation-VF defect correspondence. The inferiorly rotated optic discs with corresponding superior VF defect had faster VF progression in the superior peripheral region (P = 0.028) and superiorly rotated optic discs with corresponding inferior VF defect had faster VF progression in the inferior peripheral region (P = 0.031). The VF progression was restricted to the superior hemifield in the eyes with inferiorly rotated optic discs and corresponding superior VF defects.

conclusionIn myopic OAG patients, the direction of optic disc rotation might predict faster VF progression in the corresponding peripheral region.
