Corneal endothelial density loss in patients after gonioscopy‑assisted transluminal trabeculotomy.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo compare short-term changes in corneal endothelial cells after gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy(GATT).
methodsThis retrospective comparative study included 138 patients(138 eyes), and 98 of these patients underwent GATT procedure and 40 underwent SLT procedure as a control group. Changes in the corneal endothelium in patients who underwent GATT and SLT were analyzed retrospectively. Endothelial changes in the central cornea were examined using specular microscopy before and 6 months after the GATT and SLT procedure. Intraocular pressure(IOP), number of glaucoma medications, and side effects were evaluated at visits before and after two methods.
resultsOne hundred and thirty-eight eyes of 138 patients with a mean age of 62.9±12.7 years in the SLT group and 62.5±11.8 years in the GATT group were included in this study. Pre-procedure mean ± SD IOP was 27.7±3.6 mmHg and 27.4±5.3 mmHg (p=0.173) 2.8±0.5 and 2.9±0.8 (p=0.204) glaucoma drugs are in the SLT and GATT group, respectively. The mean corneal endothelial cell density (CECD) in the SLT group was 2433.1±581.4 cells/mm
conclusionGATT caused more CECD damage than SLT at the sixth month after the procedure. Considering the loss of CECD in candidates for GATT, sufficient number of endothelial cells in the central cornea is recommended.
