The Efficacy and Safety of the GATT Procedure in Open-Angle Glaucoma-6-Month Results.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
aimThe aim of the study was to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of GATT during a 6-month observation period. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe studied group consisted of 69 open-angle glaucoma patients treated with GATT as the only procedure or in combination with cataract surgery. Patients were assessed 1 day, 10 days, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after the surgery via standard ophthalmic examination including VF, IOP, and BCVA. The number of medications taken daily and possible complications were checked. Two criteria of success were established (S1: IOP decrease by 30% and S2: IOP lower than 18 mm Hg).
resultsBefore the surgery, the mean IOP was 26.94 mmHg and significantly decreased after GATT to 15.59 mmHg at 6M. BCVA did not significantly differ between the visits. The mean MD did not change significantly within the 6-month observation period (-8.20 dB vs. -8.16 dB,
conclusionThe 6-month observation showed that GATT is a minimally invasive glaucoma-surgery technique that enables an effective and safe IOP decrease.
