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

backgroundThe main goals of glaucoma treatment are to preserve the visual function and maintain as high a quality of life as possible at a cost acceptable to society. Therefore, it is crucial to carefully observe each individual patient in order to determine an individual and personalized treatment approach. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis article summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of medicinal glaucoma treatment as well as traditional methods of glaucoma surgery, based on the current state of knowledge. The article explains the various mechanisms of action of new minimally invasive procedures, introduces the methods mostly commonly used in Germany and gives recommendations for preoperative care and postoperative follow-up. RESULTS/

conclusionIn addition to the plethora of medicinal glaucoma treatments and classical surgical procedures, new minimally invasive treatment alternatives have become available in the past few years. The latter are an option for an earlier surgical intervention, especially in naïve or previously treated patients who appear to be unsuitable for medicinal treatment.
