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
A prospective study was conducted on 33 eyes of 33 patients with open-angle glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy to investigate hemodynamic changes in the temporal optic nerve head (ONH) and peripapillary atrophy (PPA) after trabeculectomy. Laser speckle flowgraphy of ONH and PPA was performed at baseline and at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. The waveforms of the mean blur rate in the tissue area (MT) in the temporal ONH, βPPA (with Bruch's membrane), and γPPA (without Bruch's membrane) were evaluated. Mean intra-ocular pressure (IOP) decreased from 19.1 ± 0.8 to 8.5-9.6 ± 0.7 mmHg at postoperative visits. The average MT in the βPPA region increased significantly at all postoperative time points, whereas those in the ONH and γPPA regions remained unchanged. The blowout score (BOS) increased significantly, and the resistivity index decreased significantly at all time points in all regions, which was associated with decreased IOP. The current study showed two novel findings: MT increased after trabeculectomy only in βPPA, where the choroid was present. IOP decrease-associated BOS increase occurred postoperatively in all regions, which indicates that IOP reduction may decrease vascular transmural pressure and contribute to stable blood flow uniformly, despite structural differences between the regions.
