Comparison of 12-month surgical outcomes of ab interno trabeculotomy with phacoemulsification between spatula-shaped and dual-blade microhooks.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
purposeTo compare 12-month clinical results of spatula-shaped and dual-blade microhooks ab interno trabeculotomy with phacoemulsification. STUDY
designRetrospective comparative study.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective chart review of Japanese open-angle glaucoma patients who underwent ab interno trabeculotomy with phacoemulsification with a 12-month follow-up. Two types of trabecular hook were used: the spatula-shaped Tanito Trabeculotomy ab interno Micro-hook
resultsTrabeculotomy was performed using a spatula-shaped hook in 17 eyes and a dual-blade hook in 15 eyes. Significant reductions in IOP (p < 0.001) and medication scores (p < 0.001) were noted in both groups after the 1-month time point. The percentage changes of IOP from baseline at each time point were not significantly different between groups, though there was a significant difference in medication scores at 12 months (p = 0.0192). Postoperative complications occurred similarly in both groups; one case in the dual-blade group required additional filtration surgery.
conclusionsAb interno trabeculotomy with phacoemulsification was effective in lowering IOP both with spatula-shaped and with double-blade microhooks. At 12 months more medications were used postoperatively in the spatula-shaped microhook group; however, the reductions in the medication scores from baseline were statistically significant in both groups.
