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

purposeCataract is a known effect of trabeculectomy (TE), but some surgeons are hesitant to perform combined phacoemulsification-TE (PTE) due to a risk of increased TE failure. Herein, we compare intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering between trabeculectomy (TE) and phacoemulsification-TE (PTE) and investigate factors that impact patient outcomes.

methodsWe performed a retrospective study of adults undergoing primary TE or PTE at our institution from 2010 to 2017. We used Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to investigate time to TE failure, and Cox proportional hazards modeling to investigate predictors of TE failure, defined as undergoing a second glaucoma surgery or using more IOP-lowering medications than pre-operatively.

results318 surgeries (218 TE; 100 PTE) from 268 patients were included. Median follow-up time was 753 days. Mean baseline IOP was 21.1 mmHg. There were no significant differences in IOP between TE and PTE groups beyond postoperative year 1, with 28.9-46.5% of TE and 35.5-44.4% of PTE groups achieving IOP ≤10. Final IOP was similar in both groups (

conclusionThis study suggests there is no significant difference in the risk of TE failure in patients receiving TE versus those receiving PTE.
