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

backgroundGlaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide and in many cases cannot be adequately controlled with conservative treatment. MATERIALS AND

methodsSchematic evaluation of various surgical techniques.

resultsTrabeculectomy is the gold standard of glaucoma surgery and requires close follow-up care. Novel, minimally invasive procedures are suitable for patients with moderately advanced, uncomplicated stages of the disease, whereas filtrating tube implants or cyclodestructive techniques are required in patients with complex glaucoma.

conclusionVarious surgical techniques are available and have their specific indication window for the glaucoma surgeon, depending on the severity, progression, and risk factors of the disease.
