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
Introduction: The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety in 4-year follow-up of Ex-PRESS P-200 mini-shunt implantation versus standard trabeculectomy. Material and methods: A single-center retrospective study on patients diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma with failed medical treatment and who underwent Ex-PRESS device implantation or standard trabeculectomy was conducted. Seventy-three eyes were included in the analysis, 33 with Ex-PRESS P-200 implantation and 40 with standard trabeculectomy. Results: Significant decreases in the intraocular pressure (IOP) were observed after surgery and at all follow-ups in both groups ( Conclusions: Both procedures provided good control of IOP and decreased the number of postoperative medications. The advantage of the Ex-PRESS shunt is the better visual acuity, but its main limitation is the cost.
