Multimodal etiology of drug induced angle closure with topical glaucoma therapy.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 present a case of acute onset of bilateral choroidal effusions leading to angle closure glaucoma attributed to multiple mechanism of actions causing ciliary body and aqueous flow disruption in the setting of topical glaucoma therapy with latanoprost, brimonidine 0.2%, and Brinzolamide 0.1%. OBSERVATION: The patient presented with ocular hypertension in the setting of bilateral choroidal effusions, leading to angle closure without pupillary block. After cessation of the glaucoma drops and starting steroids and cycloplegics, the patient's symptoms resolved. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: This case report highlights the various physiological mechanisms of action that can induce angle closure glaucoma from commonly used topical medications for glaucoma treatment. Thus, a keen awareness is warranted of this idiosyncratic reaction in order to avoid morbidity and long term vision loss.
