Influence of Trabeculectomy with Mitomycin C on Longitudinal Changes in the Visual Field in Glaucoma Patients with High Myopia.

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 evaluate the effect of trabeculectomy (Trab MMC) on visual field (VF) progression in eyes with glaucoma and high myopia. Patients and Methods: Patients diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma or exfoliation glaucoma who underwent Trab MMC as the first glaucoma surgery along with ≥3 VF tests preoperatively and postoperatively were enrolled. High myopia was defined as an axial length ≥26.5 mm. Postoperative reductions in intraocular pressure (IOP) were assessed by survival analysis using IOP measurements obtained preoperatively. The longitudinal trends of the outcome measures were evaluated using linear mixed models. Results: Thirty-five eyes of 32 patients were included in this study, including 22 eyes of 20 patients in non-highly myopic group and 13 eyes of 12 patients in highly myopic group. IOP decreased after Trab MMC, and the survival rate did not differ significantly in relation to axial length. Linear mixed-model analyses suggested that the inhibitory effects of Trab MMC on the rate of mean deviation (MD) changes were significant in the non-highly myopic group (-0.53 ± 0.15 dB/year preoperatively to -0.16 ± 0.13 dB/year postoperatively; Conclusion: Trab MMC reduced IOP in both highly myopic and non-highly myopic eyes, and IOP reduction was very similar in both groups. The VF deterioration rate decreased in both groups, but the change was weaker and nonsignificant in the highly myopic group.
