Viscocanalostomy combined with trabeculotomy and mitomycin C in the treatment of primary congenital glaucoma.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
aimTo evaluate the long-term outcome of viscocanalostomy combined with trabeculotomy and mitomycin C in the treatment of primary congenital glaucoma.
methodsThis is a retrospective study. Forty-two eyes of 26 patients with primary congenital glaucoma were enrolled. Intraocular pressure (IOP), corneal diameter (mm) and cup/disc (C/D) were measured before and after the surgery respectively. Follow-up period was 30mo.
resultsThe mean preoperative IOP was 30.6±7.35 mm Hg. Of the 42 eyes, 2 eyes were required conversion to trabeculectomy for the absence of Schlemm's canal. Of remained 40 eyes, 38 eyes (95%) achieved successful IOP control. The average postoperative IOP was 11.69±4.18 mm Hg at 12mo. The mean reduction was 18.91 mm Hg (
conclusionViscocanalostomy combined with trabeculotomy and mitomycin C is useful in the management of primary congenital glaucoma.
