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 evaluate the 72-month clinical results of trabectome surgery (TOM) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), secondary OAG and childhood glaucoma.
methodA total of 305 eyes from 249 glaucoma patients were analyzed in the current retrospective single-center study. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed using three criteria: criterion A (postoperative intraocular pressure [IOP] ≤ 21 mmHg and ≥ 20% reduction from baseline IOP); criterion B (postoperative IOP ≤ 18 mmHg and ≥ 20% reduction from baseline IOP); and criterion C (postoperative IOP ≤ 16 mmHg and ≥ 20% reduction from baseline IOP). The changes in IOP, medication score, success probability, results of the multivariate analysis for success and failure risk factors, and complications were analyzed.
resultsThe baseline IOP in all glaucoma patients decreased from 29.2 ± 9.8 mmHg with a 5.3 ± 1.7 medication score to 16.4 ± 5.8 mmHg (- 43.8%) with a 4.2 ± 1.5 medication score at 72 months (p < 0.01). The success probabilities in all cases for 72 months based on criterion A, B, and C were 44%, 35%, and 17%, respectively. For criterion A, no significant differences were found in the success probability according to the glaucoma subtype for 72 months. The combined surgical procedure significantly decreased the failure risk (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.59). On the other hand, the presence of POAG (HR: 1.6) and a history of past selective laser trabeculoplasty (HR: 2.2) significantly increased failure risk. One patient (0.3%) demonstrated endophthalmitis after TOM but recovered through appropriate treatment.
conclusionAt the 72-month time point, approximately half of the glaucoma patients maintained an IOP ≤ 21 mmHg with ≥ 20% IOP reduction. TOM is a safe surgery but may not yield sufficient IOP reduction in patients who have received SLT or have POAG.
