Outcomes of standalone ab interno trabeculotomy in the treatment of open-angle glaucoma in eyes with high myopia.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
backgroundWe retrospectively evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of trabeculotomy glaucoma surgery in treating open-angle glaucoma (OAG) in eyes with high myopia (HM).
methodsThis study included 20 eyes with HM (axial length ≥ 26.5 mm) and OAG; age, preoperative IOP (intraocular pressure), and sex-matched 20 non-HM eyes (axial length < 26.5 mm) served as controls. Each eye underwent standalone ab interno trabeculotomy using a Kahook dual blade. A follow-up examination was performed 36 months after surgery. The main outcome measure was the operative success rate (i.e., a ≥ 20% pre- to post-operative reduction in IOP with or without IOP-lowering medication). Kaplan-Meier analysis was employed as a measure of surgical success. The secondary outcome measures were postoperative IOP, the number of glaucoma medications, and postoperative complications.
resultsIOP and the number of glaucoma medications were statistically significantly reduced at all postoperative follow-up examinations. The Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that the probability of postoperative success at 36 months was 45% and 65% for HM and non-HM eyes, respectively. In the HM group, the presence of pathological myopia was statistically significant risk factor for surgical failure. No critical postoperative complications were detected.
conclusionsIn our study, the long-term efficacy of ab interno trabeculotomy in HM eyes with OAG was inferior to that in non-HM eyes with OAG. Our findings suggest that surgical indications for trabeculotomy in HM should be determined based on the presence of pathological myopia.
