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

Objective: Previous studies have suggested that presbyopia may progress faster in patients with glaucoma. This study aimed to compare glaucoma patients and controls to assess the severity of presbyopia in terms of the preference for contact lens (CL) correction. Methods: We compared 457 glaucoma patients and 500 controls aged 40-69 years, assessing near add power, CL-corrected visual acuity, under-correction with CL (CL power- full correction power), and glaucoma and dry eye-related parameters. Regression analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between the near-add power and ocular parameters. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis estimated the age at which the near add power reached +3.00 D. Results: The mean near add power was 2.27 ± 0.84 D in the control group and 2.47 ± 0.71 D in the glaucoma group (p < 0.01). The CL-corrected visual acuity (LogMAR) was 0.02 ± 0.10 and 0.04 ± 0.11 (p < 0.01), and the under-correction was 0.28 ± 0.69 D and 0.43 ± 0.94 D (p < 0.01), respectively. The glaucoma group showed poorer dry eye-related parameters, and under-correction was associated with myopia, anisometropia, near-add power, lower Schirmer test values, and superficial punctate keratopathy. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that glaucoma patients reached +3.00 D near add power significantly earlier than the controls ( Conclusion: Patients with glaucoma preferred more under-corrected CLs than controls. Our results further confirmed the presence of severe presbyopia in individuals with glaucoma.
