Relaxing descemetotomy: microscope-integrated OCT-guided technique for acute corneal hydrops.
Article in JCRS online case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: 3 cases are used to illustrate the technique of Descemet membrane (DM) relaxing incisions followed by air descemetopexy for the management of patients with acute corneal hydrops. Patients and Clinical Findings: In each case, anterior-segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrated taut DM detachments and hydrops was refractory to conservative medical management and intracameral air injection. Diagnosis Intervention and Outcomes: To facilitate the reapproximation of DM and potentiate corneal deturgescence, intraoperative OCT-guided descemetotomy was performed with bent surgical scissors and a bent 30-gauge needle. Subsequent air descemetopexy was successful, and DM reattachment was maintained postoperatively. Corneal edema improved in all patients relatively rapidly postoperatively. Conclusions: Relaxing descemetotomy with air descemetopexy may be useful in cases of acute corneal hydrops with taut DM detachments that are unresponsive to air tamponade alone.
