Article in Oman journal of ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
backgroundThe aim of the study was to assess the midterm efficacy and safety of the iStent glaucoma device in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe conducted a retrospective case series of all patients implanted with iStent inject® in OAG. Primary outcomes included intraocular pressure (IOP) and the reduction of antiglaucoma medications. Safety outcomes comprised adverse complications, additional surgeries, and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA).
resultsEight eyes from eight patients were included in this series. The mean age was 56.3 ± 17.5 years. Six eyes had primary OAG and two eyes had secondary OAG. The majority of eyes (75%) had mild-to-moderate glaucoma. Five eyes underwent combined surgery, whereas the remaining three eyes underwent a standalone procedure. The mean baseline IOP was 22.9 ± 8.2 mmHg, and the mean IOP at 2 years after the procedure was 13.6 ± 2.8 mmHg. There was a 44.5% (10.2 ± 2.5 mmHg;
conclusioniStent inject implantation safely reduced IOP and medication burden up to 24 months postoperative.
