[How can one learn to perform a trabeculectomy? : The Mainz treatment scheme].
Review in Die Ophthalmologie, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Trabeculectomy represents the glaucoma surgical procedure that achieves the greatest reduction in intraocular pressure and enables a low pressure regulation especially in normal pressure glaucoma. For the beginner the operation is challenging due to potential intraoperative and postoperative difficulties. With this in mind this article explains how to learn to perform a trabeculectomy and explains the various steps from assessing the indications via training, performing the surgery independently and follow-up care. The article points out the challenges during the procedure and the possible solutions and explains the individual aftercare using the Mainz treatment scheme as an example. In this way, the risk of serious complications can be reduced to a minimum and in the vast majority of patients a sufficient regulation of intraocular pressure can be achieved without the need for eye drops.
