The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThis study investigates the short-term effects of prolene gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy (GATT) on anterior segment parameters and corneal endothelium in patients with open-angle glaucoma.
methodsThis retrospective study included 30 eyes from 30 patients who underwent GATT surgery. Demographic data, ophthalmological examination findings, and intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements using a Goldman applanation tonometer were recorded. Scheimpflug images were acquired at the pre-operative stage, as well as on the 1st day, 1st week, and 1st month postoperatively. Corneal endothelial cell counts were obtained via specular microscopy.
resultsThe mean age of patients was 60.3 ± 15.5 years. Anterior chamber depth and central corneal thickness increased on the 1st postoperative day (p:0.002, p < 0.001, respectively). Changes in anterior chamber depth values at the postoperative 1st week and 1st month compared to baseline were not statistically significant. Central corneal thickness decreased significantly at the 1st postoperative month compared to baseline (p:0.007). Corneal endothelial cell counts at the 1st month were comparable to baseline values (p:0.936).
conclusionOur findings reveal that prolene gonioscopy-assisted transluminal trabeculotomy induces temporary changes in anterior segment parameters but preserves corneal endothelial cell count within the first month, suggesting a promising profile for GATT in glaucoma management.
