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

Purpose: To assess the incidence and cause of idiopathic, irreversible loss of vision ("wipe-out") in the early post-operative period after glaucoma-filtration surgery in advanced glaucoma. Methods: It was a prospective, interventional cohort study. Patients with advanced glaucoma and macular split fixation underwent either only trabeculectomy (group A) or combined phaco-emulsification with trabeculectomy (group B). The incidence and cause of visual loss, changes in intra-ocular pressure, visual acuity, and visual field indices during 2 months post surgery were assessed. Results: Thirty patients (30 eyes) were divided in two groups. No significant difference was noted between the pre-operative and post-operative mean deviations in both groups (P = 0.41, P = 0.65). Two eyes in group A and one eye in group B had visual loss of two lines or more at the end of 2 months because of cataract and choroidal detachment. None of the eyes showed "wipe-out". Conclusion: "Wipe-out" is a rare phenomenon after surgery in advanced glaucoma.
