Microcatheter-assisted circumferential trabeculotomy in primary congenital glaucoma.
Article in Saudi journal of ophthalmology : official journal of the Saudi Ophthalmological Society. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07550868 (Efficacy and Safety of Different Extents of Goniotomy in Primary Congenital Glaucoma), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 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.

Abstract
purposeTo study circumferential trabeculotomy for congenital glaucoma using Glaucolight illuminated microcatheter.
methodsThis was a prospective, uncontrolled, consecutive interventional study of 25 eyes of 25 patients with primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) underwent circumferential trabeculotomy done with an illuminated microcatheter through a period of 18-24 months in ophthalmology department, faculty of medicine, Minia University, Egypt. Patients' data of 12 months' follow-up were recorded. The primary target was the mean intraocular pressure (IOP) study in which complete success was defined as an IOP ≤21 mm Hg and at least a 30% reduction without the use of antiglaucoma drugs and a qualified success when medications were used to reach this aim. The secondary target was studying the corneal diameter and cup disc ratio change.
resultsThe mean IOP (mm Hg) was reduced from 27.28 ± 3.46 preoperatively to 17.50 ± 5.09 at the final postoperative visit (
conclusionCircumferential trabeculotomy accomplished by an illuminated microcatheter achieved a significant IOP lowering with either qualified or complete success in most of eyes with no significant ocular complications and it can be the first option in pediatric PCG surgery.
