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: Herein, we report a case of XEN gel stent implantation in a patient with ocular cicatricial pemphigoid that successfully reduced glaucoma topical medication at one year. Observations: A 76-year-old male patient presented with severe ocular cicatricial pemphigoid and advanced glaucoma who required several topical medications to control intraocular pressure. Despite successful reduction of ocular inflammation with immunomodulatory therapy, his topical medication regimen prevented total remission of ocular inflammation. One year after XEN gel stent implantation, his intraocular pressures were controlled without any topical medication, and he had no ocular inflammation off any immunomodulatory therapy. Conclusions and Importance: The XEN gel stent represents a useful intervention for glaucoma treatment even in the setting of severe ocular surface disease and can improve outcomes for concurrent inflammatory and glaucomatous pathology.
