Surgical Management of Glaucoma Secondary to Bilateral Acute Iris Transillumination: A Role for Gonioscopy-assisted Transluminal Trabeculotomy.
Article in Journal of ophthalmic & vision research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeWe report a case of bilateral acute iris transillumination (BAIT) in a young woman associated with ocular hypertension which eventually progressed to glaucoma that was treated with gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculectomy (GATT). CASE REPORT: A 37-year-old otherwise healthy female presented with intermittently red and inflamed eyes and blurred vision. She was treated with oral moxifloxacin months prior to presentation. Iris transillumination defects, a pigmented anterior chamber reaction, the absence of keratic precipitates, and a history of upper respiratory infection treated with an oral fluoroquinolone prompted the diagnosis of BAIT. Intraocular pressure (IOP) remained uncontrolled on multiple glaucoma medications. Following the development of new visual field defects, indicating progression to glaucoma, GATT with cataract extraction was performed.
conclusionAlthough surgical intervention is rare with BAIT, our case demonstrates that GATT may be used effectively in those patients needing better IOP control before considering incisional glaucoma surgery.
