Comparison of a Modified Trabeculectomy Technique With Standard Trabeculectomy in Respect to Effectivity and Complication Rates.
Article in Journal of ophthalmology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: To compare the results of modified trabeculectomy with a central scleral gutter under the flap and releasable suture with standard trabeculectomy for open angle glaucoma cases. Design: Retrospective. Method: This retrospective comparative case series evaluated the outcomes of modified trabeculectomy in 32 eyes and standard trabeculectomy in 44 eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma or pseudoexfoliative glaucoma. Success was defined as achieving an intraocular pressure (IOP) ≤ 21 mmHg with or without the use of IOP-lowering eyedrops and no need for additional glaucoma surgery. Results: There were 20 men (62.5%) and 12 women (37.5%), with a mean age of 61.9 ± 10.5 years in the modified trabeculectomy group and 27 men (61.4%) and 17 women (38.6%), with a mean age of 62.3 ± 9.8 years in the standard trabeculectomy group. Modified trabeculectomy group had a preoperative IOP of 26.9 ± 8.1 mmHg and a postoperative IOP of 15.3 ± 4.1 mmHg ( Conclusion: The modified trabeculectomy surgery lowers IOP effectively with a lower incidence of postoperative surgical complications.
