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

purposeThis study assessed the development of macular edema (ME) and its association with systemic diseases in patients with diabetic neovascular glaucoma (NVG).

methodsThe medical records of 40 patients (45 eyes) diagnosed with diabetic NVG, between January 2017 and April 2022, were retrospectively reviewed. At the time of NVG diagnosis, central retinal thickness (CRT) was measured using optical coherence tomography. The eyes were categorized into groups with ME (CRT ≥300 μm) and without ME. Systemic diseases, ocular parameters, and prior treatments such as panretinal photocoagulation and intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor injections were compared between the two groups.

resultsOnly 6 of the 45 eyes (13.3%) had ME at the time of NVG diagnosis. No significant differences were observed between the ME and non-ME groups in terms of systemic diseases, including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular accident, and chronic kidney disease. Other clinical characteristics, such as age, sex, body mass index, smoking history, best-corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, lens status, and history of ocular treatment, were also comparable between groups.

conclusionsIn patients with diabetic NVG, ME was observed in a minority of cases and showed no significant association with systemic diseases.
