Retrocorneal membrane interception enhanced penetrating canaloplasty for patients with open angle glaucoma secondary to ICE syndrome.
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 2 papers.
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
introductionTo assess the efficacy and safety of retrocorneal membrane interception (RMI)-enhanced penetrating canaloplasty in glaucoma secondary to iridocorneal endothelial syndrome (GS-ICE) with open angle or small peripheral anterior synechiae (PAS).
methodsA series of 13 patients (13 eyes) with GS-ICE and uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP) underwent RMI-enhanced penetrating canaloplasty from March 2019 to October 2020. The patients were followed up at one week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months, postoperatively. The main outcome measure was surgical success, which was defined as an IOP ≤ 18 mmHg or ≤ 21 mmHg, with glaucoma medications (qualified success), or without glaucoma medications (complete success). Secondary outcome measures were IOP, medication usage, and surgical complications.
resultsAmong the 13 GS-ICE eyes, 12 (92%) achieved qualified success and 10 (77%) achieved complete success at 12 months postoperatively. The mean IOP decreased from 36.41 ± 8.92 mmHg on 3.0 (IQR 0.5) medications before surgery to 17.09 ± 7.71 mmHg (p = 0.0004) on 0.0 (IQR 0.5) medications (p = 0.0004) at 12 months after surgery. Transient hypotony (38%) and hyphema (38%) were the most common complications.
conclusionsRMI-enhanced penetrating canaloplasty appears effective and safe in treating GS-ICE with open angle or small PAS up to one year of follow up.
