Factors Associated with Referral to Low Vision for Patients with Advanced Glaucoma.

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
Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of irreversible visual impairment world wide. Providing low vision rehabilitation (LVR) services is a primary mode of support for patients with permanent vision loss. This retrospective, cross-sectional study evaluated the rate at which patients with severe open-angle glaucoma (OAG) were referred for LVR services at an academic medical center. Patient demographics, glaucoma severity, appointment history, performance on visual field (VF) testing, presenting visual acuity (VA), and change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) after low vision refraction were abstracted from the electronic record and summarized by using descriptive statistics. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the relationship between study variables and the likelihood of referral for LVR evaluation. Out of 522 patients with severe OAG, 88% of whom qualified as having low vision, 14 were referred for an LVR evaluation (2.7%). Referrals were most strongly associated with VA (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 7.20; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.11-24.64,
