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

purposeTo investigate risk factors for choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy.

methodsWe prospectively evaluated 97 patients with open-angle glaucoma who underwent primary trabeculectomy to investigate risk factors for choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy. The primary outcome measure was risk factors for the occurrence and severity of choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy. Choroidal detachment severity was quantified as the number of fundus quadrants with choroidal detachment.

resultsSixteen patients (16.5%) had choroidal detachment. Mean period between surgery and occurrence of choroidal detachment was 7.9 ± 5.7 days. Mean intraocular pressure (IOP) on the first day of choroidal detachment was 6.1 ± 3.0 mm Hg. Multivariable analyses revealed that the exfoliation glaucoma, greater ΔIOP between preoperative and lowest postoperative IOPs, and thicker cornea were associated with choroidal detachment (P = 0.022, P = 0.002, and P = 0.013, respectively). These factors were also associated with the severity of choroidal detachment (exfoliation glaucoma; P = 0.013, greater ΔIOP; P < 0.001, and thicker cornea; P = 0.006).

conclusionsExfoliation glaucoma, more IOP reduction, and thicker cornea are associated with the occurrence and severity of choroidal detachment after trabeculectomy.
