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

Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in Thai glaucoma patients across three treatment groups-initial, adjunctive, and replacement therapy-and to identify predictors of treatment response and durability. Methods: This retrospective study included glaucoma patients who underwent SLT and were classified into initial, adjunctive, and replacement therapy groups. Treatment durability was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier survival methods. Predictors of non-response and shortened effects were identified using multivariable logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models. Results: A total of 254 eyes from 123 patients were included: 76 eyes in the initial group, 117 in adjunctive therapy, and 61 in replacement therapy. Overall, 61.1% of eyes achieved a laser response, with significant variation among groups (initial 78.9%, replacement 68.9%, adjunctive 45.3%; Conclusion: SLT is effective and repeatable in Thai patients, particularly as initial or replacement therapy. While adjunctive therapy provides some benefit, patients with higher baseline IOP, heavier medication burden are more likely to experience non-response or shortened efficacy. Individualized selection and timely retreatment may optimize outcomes.
