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 reported the clinical course of refractory childhood glaucoma associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) treated with Baerveldt glaucoma implant (BGI). The patient was a 14-year-old male diagnosed with SWS after birth. He had previously undergone four trabeculotomies for glaucoma and vitrectomy for submacular hemorrhage from a diffuse choroidal hemangioma in his left eye. Before the BGI surgery, his intraocular pressure was 30 mmHg under full medications. The patient experienced extensive serous retinal and choroidal detachments on Postoperative Day 9. The cause may have been the increased leakage of serous fluid from the choroidal hemangioma and the high venous pressure in the episclera due to SWS. Retinal and choroidal detachments subsided within 8 days with conservative therapy. It is important to avoid postoperative hypotony for the treatment of secondary childhood glaucoma due to SWS.
