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 report a case of XEN45 gel stent implantation in a pediatric patient with WAGR syndrome as a successful surgical intervention in the management of multifactorial secondary open-angle glaucoma. Observations: A 6-year-old female with a history of WAGR syndrome, bilateral congenital aniridia, pseudophakia OD and glaucoma OD, was referred for a XEN45 gel stent OD. IOP was persistently elevated at 24 mm Hg despite two glaucoma medications. Implantation of the XEN45 gel stent was performed using a transconjunctival ab externo approach. There were no significant intra-or-postoperative adverse events associated with the stent. The patient achieved good IOP-lowering control without glaucoma medications across the 18-month follow-up period. Conclusions: A XEN45 stent through a transconjunctival ab externo approach may be an effective surgical intervention in pediatric patients with secondary open-angle glaucoma associated with aniridia and aphakia.
