Pressure-Lowering Effect of Fistula Occlusion in a Patient with Secondary Glaucoma Due to an Intracranial Arteriovenous Fistula.
Article in Ophthalmology and therapy, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThis case report presents the pressure-lowering effect of transluminal fistula occlusion in a patient suffering from secondary glaucoma due to carotid cavernous fistula (CCF). CASE REPORT: A 76-year-old Caucasian woman presented with dilated epibulbar vessels with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP, >30 mmHg) as well as glaucomatous excavations of the optic disc in both eyes. Cerebral digital subtraction angiography revealed a CCF with bilateral orbital communication. Preoperative diurnal pressure profiling showed an average IOP of 25.8 mmHg (right eye) and 26.6 mmHg (left eye). Transluminal intervention and fistula occlusion led to a decrease in IOP of about 9 mmHg. A post-operative oculomotor nerve palsy regressed spontaneously.
conclusionSecondary glaucoma due to CCF might be affected by fistula occlusion. Therefore, it should be considered before any surgical glaucoma interventions are performed. Diurnal pressure profiling is an effective tool for monitoring therapeutic success.
