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
We retrospectively investigated the relationship between Schlemm's canal incision length and the results of ab interno gonioscopy-assisted transluminal suture trabeculotomy (GATST) with/without cataract surgery in open-angle glaucoma patients at Tsukazaki Hospital from 2018-2021. The study included 113 eyes from 76 patients (age: 70.0 ± 10.8 years; female/male: 43 [56.6%]/33 [43.4%]). GATST with and without cataract surgery was performed on 87 (phakia) [77.0%] and 26 eyes (pseudophakia) [23.0%], respectively; 102 [90.3%] eyes had primary open-angle glaucoma, and 11 [9.7%] had pseudoexfoliation glaucoma. Intraocular pressure (IOP) significantly decreased at 3/6/12 months, and the antiglaucoma eyedrop number significantly decreased at 6/12 months (all P values < 0.001). Linear mixed-effects models showed that incision length had significant positive associations with IOP spikes, hyphema grade, and IOP changes (amount/percentage) at 6 months; surgical success rate (IOP ≤ 15 mmHg, ≥ 20% reduction, no additional surgeries [criterion B]) at 6/12 months; and surgical success rate (IOP ≤ 21 mmHg, ≥ 20% reduction, no additional surgeries [criterion A]) at 12 months (Ps < 0.05). There were no significant associations with IOP changes at 12 months, surgical success rate (criterion A) at 6 months, or antiglaucoma eyedrop number at either timepoint (Ps > 0.05). Longer incisions were more likely to produce greater IOP reduction, requiring more attention to IOP spikes/hyphema.
