Degree of Myopia and Glaucoma Risk: A Dose-Response Meta-analysis.

For each unit (1-D) increase in myopia, the risk of glaucoma increases by approximately 20%. The risk more steeply increases in high-degree myopia, representing a significant nonlinear relationship.

Interventions for Glaucoma Medication Adherence Improvement: A Network Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

The NMA indicated that tailored care can improve adherence to glaucoma medication compared with SOC. A multifaceted approach might yield additional improvements.

Association of Optic Disc Tilt and Torsion with Open-Angle Glaucoma Progression Risk: Meta-Analysis and Meta-Regression Analysis.

Evidence for the effects of optic nerve deformation on glaucoma progression is still lacking. Future research using stratified analysis according to age and tailored diagnostic criteria will allow for more rigorous analyses for this topic.

Placebo Effect and Its Determinants in Ocular Hypotensive Therapy: Meta-analysis and Multiple Meta-regression Analysis.

The placebo effect has been studied and documented within a wide clinical context. It remains unclear whether placebo is effective in glaucoma treatment or, if so, which factors are determinative of effect size (ES).
