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

aimTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of microcatheter-assisted 360-degree trabeculotomy combined with trabeculectomy (MATT-Trab) for treating refractory glaucoma.

methodsPatients with refractory glaucoma who underwent MATT-Trab were retrospectively examined. Efficacy indicators for research statistics included the intraocular pressure (IOP) level, degree of decrease, changes in medication dosage, and success rate. Safety indicators included the best-corrected visual acuity and incidence of complications.

resultsThis study comprised 31 patients, including 11 males and 20 females, with ages ranging from 8mo to 67y (mean age: 29.40±22.10y). The average postoperative IOP at 1d, 1wk, 1mo, 3mo, 6mo, 1y, and the last follow-up was significantly lower than the average preoperative IOP (31.33±9.24 mm Hg,

conclusionOur results indicate that MATT-Trab is effective and safe for treating refractory glaucoma.
