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

Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, characterized by progressive retinal ganglion cell loss and functional impairment. It is a clinically heterogeneous disease driven by complex, multilayered molecular mechanisms. High-throughput multi-omic technologies are catalyzing a shift toward integrated multi-omic strategies to define glaucoma trajectory and disentangle its pathophysiology. Genomic, transcriptomic, epigenomic, proteomic, metabolomic, lipidomic, microbiome, and phenomic data can help identify biomarkers, molecular endotypes, and pathways that shape glaucoma susceptibility and progression. In this review, we synthesize the current multi-omic landscape in glaucoma, evaluate the strengths and limitations of each modality, and highlight key challenges in integrative approaches. Lastly, we propose conceptual and methodological frameworks for leveraging multi-omics to define the full spectrum of glaucoma, with a focus on optic nerve integrity, mechanistic insights, and precision medicine, while remaining agnostic to evolving omics technologies.
