Clinical Analysis of Pediatric Glaucoma in Central China.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: We aimed to describe the characteristics, epidemiology, management, and outcomes of glaucoma in pediatric patients in central China. Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed inpatients with pediatric glaucoma at Henan Provincial People's Hospital, Henan Eye Institute, and Henan Eye Hospital between 2017 and 2020. Results: Overall, 239 cases (276 eyes) of pediatric glaucoma in patients, comprising 87 girls (36.40%) and 152 boys (63.60%) were analyzed. The mean age was 6.65 ± 4.46, and 2.93% of the patients had a family history of glaucoma. Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) was the most common type of glaucoma, followed by traumatic glaucoma in 8.33% of the patients, which was considered secondary glaucoma. The most common signs and symptoms were elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) and eye pain. Trabeculotomy (Trab) and microcatheter-assisted 360° trabeculotomy (MAT) combined with Trab were the most commonly performed surgeries. The IOP of patients with PCG, juvenile open-angle glaucoma (JOAG), and secondary glaucoma were 15.27 ± 7.48 mmHg, 17.16 ± 10.05, and 18.65 ± 8.55, respectively, at the final follow up. The rate of re-operations in patients with PCG, JOAG, and secondary glaucoma were 9.15%, 6.78%, and 4.69%, respectively. The mean visual acuity of the eyes with PCG, JOAG, and secondary glaucoma was 0.79 ± 0.68, 0.51 ± 0.48, and 0.53 ± 0.50, respectively. Conclusion: PCG, JOAG, and traumatic glaucoma were the most prevalent subtypes in patients with pediatric glaucoma in central China. Trab and MAT combined with Trab were the most common interventions used in this study. Pediatric amblyopia might require full attention during the entire treatment, especially after glaucoma surgery. Effective preventive measures and more public education on glaucoma prevention and the importance of early diagnosis and treatment is necessary.
