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 compare Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) outcomes in neovascular glaucoma (NVG) eyes with and without a postoperative (PO) hypertensive (HTN) phase. Design: Retrospective study at a single tertiary care center of patients who underwent AGV implantation for NVG treatment with ≥6-month follow-up. Methods: Main outcome measures included intraocular pressure (IOP), number of glaucoma medications (GM), and failure at month 6 or at the most recent visit. Failure was defined as decline to no light perception (NLP) vision, IOP >21 mm Hg, or need for glaucoma reoperations (all with GM). Results: A total of 76 eyes of 74 patients (37 without HTN phase and 39 with HTN phase) with a mean follow-up duration of 28.9 ± 25.7 months ( Conclusion: Hypertensive (HTN) phase following AGV implantation for NVG is associated with higher preoperative IOP and greater failure by PO month (POM) 6. However, eyes with and without the HTN phase had similar needs for GM and failure rates over the long term. How to cite this article: Ramesh S, Shalaby WS, Myers JS,
