1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Incisional surgeries such as trabeculectomy reduce the resistance of the eye to trauma. Trabeculectomy is often performed together with mitomycin C, and late onset hypotony is already an expected complication in these eyes. This case report presents a patient who developed dehiscence of the scleral flap and hypotony maculopathy after Valsalva maneuver after 5.5 years of trabeculectomy. In a 6-month period, the patient's hypotonic maculopathy became evident, and vision was affected after this period. Thereupon, the wound site was explored, and dehiscence of the scleral flap at the temporal wound site and increased aqueous outflow were detected. Repair was done with sterile pericardium patch. Post-operative vision, intraocular pressure, and hypotony maculopathy recovered very quickly. After incisional surgeries, patients should be warned against both external trauma and minor traumas such as eye rubbing and Valsalva maneuver.
