Sociodemographic and Economic Factors in Outcomes of Tube Shunts for Neovascular Glaucoma.
Article in Journal of current glaucoma practice. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
importanceFew studies have analyzed associations between sociodemographic factors and neovascular glaucoma (NVG) outcomes. AIM AND
backgroundTo determine the potential impact of sociodemographic and economic factors on the NVG tube shunt surgery outcomes.
designRetrospective, single-center, comparative case series.
participantsConsecutive patients who underwent tube shunt surgery for NVG and had ≥6 months of follow-up. MATERIALS AND
methodsRegional average adjusted gross income (AGI) was determined by cross-referencing self-reported residential zip codes with average AGI per zip code supplied by the Internal Revenue Service. Two groups were created: (1) lower-income: individuals from neighborhoods with the lowest 10% of AGI (near the United States poverty line), (2) higher-income: the remaining 90% of individuals.
main outcome measuresVisual acuity (VA), intraocular pressure (IOP), and glaucoma medication number at 6 months and the most recent visit.
resultsThe mean annual AGI in the higher-income group (130 patients) was $69,596 ± 39,700 and the lower-income group (16 patients) was $27,487 ± 1,600 ( CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Lower-income may be associated with worse VA outcomes following NVG tube shunt surgery.
