Lasers in Glaucoma: an Overview.
Review in International ophthalmology, 2021. 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
Lasers have been in use as a treatment modality of glaucoma for more than last four decades. Each passing year has added newer dimensions to the existing laser technologies enhancing their safety and efficacy profile. This has become possible due to continuous research and innovations with proper understanding of the mechanism of action of different variety of lasers as treatment options. Each category of glaucoma has different underlying pathologies. Adequate knowledge and understanding of indications, limitations and hazards of these laser procedures are must before their application for improvising outcome. Recent years have witnessed a revolution this field. A thorough literature search was conducted in PubMed, Medline, the Cochrane Library Database, EMBASE, and Scopus and Google Scholar until May 2020 using the keywords, and all the articles pertaining to the relevant topics were included in this review. Purpose of this review is to summarize the important laser procedures currently in use for managing glaucoma along with updating the readers with recent advances in laser technologies, their extended applications and also analyzing possible future implications.
