Five-year clinical outcomes of combined phacoemulsification and trabectome surgery at a single glaucoma center.
Article in Graefe's archive for clinical and experimental ophthalmology = Albrecht von Graefes Archiv fur klinische und experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 analyze the 5-year results of trabectome ab interno trabeculectomy of a single glaucoma center.
methodIn this retrospective interventional single-center case series, data of 93 patients undergoing ab interno trabeculotomy between September 2010, and December 2012 were included. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed using success criteria defined as postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) ≤ 21 mmHg, and > 20% reduction from preoperative IOP, and no need for further glaucoma surgery. Risk factors for failure were identified using Cox proportional hazards ratio (HR).
resultsThe retention rate for 5-year follow-up was 66%. The cumulative probability of success at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years was 82.6%, 76.7%, 73.9%, 72.3%, and 67.5%. Risk factors for failure were lower baseline IOP (HR = 0.27, P = 0.001), younger age (HR = 0.25, P = 0.02), and higher central corneal thickness (HR = 0.18, P = 0.01). Exfoliative glaucoma was associated with a higher success rate (HR = 0.39, P = 0.02). IOP was decreased significantly from 20.0 ± 5.6 mmHg at baseline to 15.6 ± 4.6 mmHg at 5-year follow-up (P = 0.001). The baseline number of glaucoma medications was 1.8 ± 1.2, which decreased to 1.0 ± 1.2 medications at 5 years.
conclusionTrabectome surgery was associated with a good long-term efficacy and safety profile in this single-center case series with a high retention rate.
