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

purposeTo describe the efficacy and safety of the ab externo open-conjunctiva XEN CASE PRESENTATION: A case report of a 15-year-old patient with bilateral uncontrolled uveitic glaucoma secondary to chronic anterior uveitis was presented. Several medical ophthalmological and rheumatological evaluation visits were conducted. Preoperative intraocular pressure was 28 mmHg in the right eye and 32 mmHg in the left eye. She underwent a trabeculectomy in her right eye developing hypotonic maculopathy and decompression retinopathy, requiring surgical revision. Considering the complications endured in the right eye, it was decided to perform an ab externo open-conjunctiva XEN

conclusionUveitic glaucoma presents both clinical and therapeutic challenges. Traditional surgery such as trabeculectomy may entail postoperative complications such as hypotonic maculopathy and decompression retinopathy. This is the first case reporting the efficacy and safety of ab externo open-conjunctiva XEN
