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

Glaucoma is a prevalent neurodegenerative disease. It causes progressive visual loss and is one of the most common causes of blindness worldwide. It can be categorized into open-angle or closed-angle glaucoma. Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) is a subdivision of open-angle glaucoma. Non-penetrating deep sclerectomy (NPDS) is a surgical method for managing open-angle and primary congenital glaucoma, which was first introduced in 1990. During NPDS, a sclera flap is raised but not completely removed, and the outer part of Schlemm's canal and trabecular meshwork, along with the juxtacanalicular tissue, are excised without completely penetrating the eye. Therefore, it is considered a safe and efficient option for controlling intraocular pressure. This report shows a unique case of uncommon complication post-deep sclerectomy, a giant retinal tear, after undergoing non-penetrating deep sclerectomy for primary congenital glaucoma.
