Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Canaloplasty and iStent Bypass Implantation in Patients with Open-Angle Glaucoma: A Review of the Literature.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
The aim of the paper was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive antiglaucoma procedures: Canaloplasty and iStent bypass implantation with and without phacoemulsification in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). A systematic review of the recent literature was performed based on the PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science and Scopus databases. The effectiveness of the procedures was evaluated based on the reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) and the amount of antiglaucoma medication used before and after surgery. Safety of the treatments was evaluated based on the number of incidences of certain intraoperative and postoperative complications. Independent prospective randomized controlled trials (PRCTs) have demonstrated that both procedures, canaloplasty and iStent implantation, are effective in reducing IOP and the amount of antiglaucoma medication. Considering the safety profile of these procedures, both canaloplasty and iStent implantation are associated with low rates of postoperative complications and have similar safety profiles. Further studies are needed to confirm the results of our analysis, including a high-quality randomized controlled trial comparing canaloplasty and iStent bypass implantation.
