A Comprehensive Review of Recent Advances in Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery: Current Trends and Future Directions.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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, a leading cause of blindness globally, necessitates effective management strategies to prevent irreversible vision loss. Traditional glaucoma surgeries, while effective, are associated with significant risks and complications. Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) has emerged as a transformative approach, offering safer and less invasive alternatives. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in MIGS, highlighting current trends, technological innovations, and future directions. MIGS procedures, characterized by smaller incisions and quicker recovery times, have expanded the therapeutic landscape, enabling earlier intervention and improved patient outcomes. The review evaluates various MIGS techniques, their efficacy, safety profiles, and clinical outcomes, drawing insights from comparative studies and meta-analyses. Technological innovations, including enhanced device designs and integration with digital health technologies, have further bolstered the field. Despite challenges in patient selection and long-term outcomes, the future of MIGS is promising, with ongoing research and development poised to enhance its impact. By synthesizing the latest research, this review aims to inform clinicians, researchers, and policymakers, ultimately contributing to improved management of glaucoma and patient care.
