Short-term outcomes of Tanito microhook ab interno trabeculotomy combined with phacoemulsification in primary open-angle glaucoma - A pilot study.

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
purposeThe aim of the study was to assess the early postoperative efficacy and safety of Tanito microhook (TMH) ab interno trabeculotomy combined with phacoemulsification in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).
methodsThis prospective interventional study was conducted on consecutive patients with visually significant cataract and mild-moderate POAG. All patients underwent a temporal clear corneal phacoemulsification combined with TMH ab interno trabeculotomy. Postoperative evaluation was done on day 1, 1 month, and 3 months. The outcome measures included intraocular pressure (IOP) at different follow-ups and postoperative complications.
resultsIn total, 30 eyes of 30 patients were included in the study. There were 16 (53.3%) females and 14 (46.7%) males with a mean age of 62.63 ± 6.7 years. The mean IOP reduced from 23.57 ± 1.65 to 17.33 ± 2.84 at 3 months ( P < 0.001). All eyes had a corrected distance visual acuity ≥6/9 at 1 month postoperatively. Postoperative complications included corneal stromal edema in eight (26.7%) eyes, hyphema in four (13.3%) eyes, and IOP spike in one (3.3%) eye.
conclusionTMH ab interno trabeculotomy combined with phacoemulsification in patients with mild-moderate POAG is an effective and safe procedure with fewer complications.
