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

aimTo evaluate the effect of intracameral injection of conbercept for the treatment of advanced neovascular glaucoma (NVG) after vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade.

methodsConbercept 0.5 mg/0.05 mL was injected into the anterior chamber of 5 eyes, which had developed advanced NVG after vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade. Then, trabeculectomy with mitomycin C and pan-retinal photocoagulation (PRP) or extra-PRP were conducted within 2d. The follow-up time was 6mo. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), neovascularization of iris (NVI) were recorded before and after treatment.

resultsWithin 2d after injection, IOP control, and NVI regression were optimal for trabeculectomy. Hyphema occurred in one eye in the process of injection. But none of them present hyphema after trabeculectomy. At the end of follow-up time, all eyes had improved BCVA, well-controlled IOP, and completely regressed NVI.

conclusionIntracameral injection of conbercept is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with advanced NVG after vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade. Within 2d after injection is the optimal time window for trabeculectomy, which can maximally reduce the risk of perioperative hyphema.
