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
purposeTo evaluate the predictive value of clinical parameters, including biomechanical properties on the outcome of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in medically uncontrolled open angle glaucoma (OAG).
methodsSixty-eight eyes from 68 patients with OAG and IOP insufficiently regulated by topical medications were enrolled. Patients' follow-up occurred 6 and 12 months after the procedure. The recorded parameters intraocular pressure (IOP), angle characteristics, central corneal thickness (CCT) and biomechanical properties of the eyes, including corneal hysteresis CH and corneal resistance factor CRF measured with the Ocular Responses Analyzer (ORA, Reichert Ophthalmic Instruments) were tested on their predictive value of SLT-induced IOP lowering effect using correlation analyses and regression models.
resultsMean IOP reduction 12 months after SLT was 4.2 ± 5.7 mmHg (23.2%, from baseline 18.1 ± 5.2 mmHg). The preoperative IOP correlated significantly with IOP reduction (maximum Spearman's correlation r = 0.75, p < 0.001). In linear regression analysis, the corneal biomechanical properties (CH and CRF) together with the baseline IOP revealed good modelling for the IOP lowering effect of SLT (R(2) = 0.64, respectively).
conclusionsIn addition to the baseline IOP biomechanical properties (CH and CRF) are significant predictors of SLT induced IOP lowering effect in medically uncontrolled OAG.
