Exudative Retinal Detachment Without Choroidal Effusion After Glaucoma Surgery in Sturge-Weber Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
An eight-day-old full-term infant with early-onset glaucoma associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) underwent a trabeculotomy combined with a stage 1 Baerveldt glaucoma implant. After five years of stability, the patient developed increased intraocular pressure and axial length in the affected eye, necessitating the activation of the Baerveldt glaucoma implant with concurrent scleral windows. Postoperatively, the patient developed an inferior exudative retinal detachment, which was initially monitored, followed by administration of intravitreal metoprolol. This resulted in the complete resolution of the retinal detachment within six months. We report the first case of postoperative exudative retinal detachment in the absence of choroidal effusion in a child with SWS-related glaucoma. The clinical course raises the possibility that beta-blockers could potentially mitigate certain complications following glaucoma surgeries in these patients. Larger, prospective studies are necessary to generate high-level evidence.
