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

Aim and background: To compare the safety and efficacy of subconjunctival gel stent implantation in the superonasal (SN) vs inferonasal (IN) quadrants in the treatment of glaucoma. Materials and methods: Patients with a history of IN ( Results: Mean baseline IOP was 32.4 ± 11.7 mm Hg in the IN group and 21.6 ± 9.2 mm Hg in the SN group ( Conclusion: Both IN and SN subconjunctival gel stent placements provide favorable safety and efficacy when treating open-angle glaucoma, with a meaningful decrease in medication use and IOP. Clinical significance: Implantation of the subconjunctival gel stent in the IN quadrant is an effective and safe alternative to superior implantation in refractory glaucoma.
