Use of selective laser trabeculoplasty as an alternative in patients who developed ocular hypertension after intravitreal dexamethasone implants: a series of 35 eyes.

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
purposeSteroid-induced ocular hypertension (OHT) occurs in about a third of cases after dexamethasone implant (DEXi) intravitreal injection (IVI), for which treatment discontinuation may be required. The aim of this study was to assess the benefit of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in patients who developed transient OHT after DEXi injection to prevent subsequent steroid-induced OHT peaks during reinjections.
methodsA real-life, retrospective, and observational study was conducted to assess the intraocular pressure (IOP) after SLT in steroid responders after DEXi injection (IOP > 21 mmHg). Were analyzed: IOP 1 and 2 months after SLT, maximum IOP (IOP
resultsThirty-five eyes of 29 patients were included. The mean macular edema follow-up duration was 38.4 ± 28.4 months. SLT was performed after a mean number of 6.3 ± 4.7 DEXi IVIs. After SLT, the IOP
conclusionThe use of 180° SLT in this indication could be an effective therapeutic alternative to control steroid-induced OHT and safely continue DEXi injections.
