Tube obstruction caused by intraocular lens capture following PreserFlo MicroShunt implantation.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: We describe a rare case of tube obstruction caused by intraocular lens (IOL) capture following a PreserFlo MicroShunt (PMS) surgery and its subsequent management. Observations: Tube obstruction was noted following PMS implantation at 8 days postoperatively. The intraocular pressure (IOP) increased to 42 mmHg because of tube occlusion that was caused by iris and IOL capture at the tip of the tube. The occlusion was released surgically to free the lumen, and the IOP rapidly decreased to 14 mmHg. Conclusions and importance: IOP elevation due to tube obstruction caused by iris and IOL capture after PMS surgery was resolved by surgical intervention without tube reinsertion. Extra care is required regarding the IOL position in relation to the PMS tube when hypotony occurs in the early postoperative period.
