BACKGROUND: Network meta-analysis compares multiple treatment options for the
same condition and may be useful for developing clinical practice guidelines.
PURPOSE: To compare treatment recommendations for first-line medical therapy for
primary open angle-glaucoma (POAG) from major updates of American Academy of
Ophthalmology (AAO) guidelines with the evidence available at the time, using
network meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library
were searched on 11 March 2014 for randomized, controlled trials (RCTs) of
glaucoma monotherapies compared with placebo, vehicle, or no treatment or other
monotherapies. The AAO Web site was searched in August 2014 to identify AAO POAG
guidelines. STUDY SELECTION: Eligible RCTs were selected by 2 independent
reviewers, and guidelines were selected by 1 person. DATA EXTRACTION: One person
abstracted recommendations from guidelines and a second person verified. Two
people independently abstracted data from included RCTs. DATA SYNTHESIS:
Guidelines were grouped together on the basis of literature search dates, and
RCTs that existed at 1991, 1995, 1999, 2004, and 2009 were analyzed. The outcome
of interest was intraocular pressure (IOP) at 3 months. Only the latest guideline
made a specific recommendation: prostaglandins. Network meta-analyses showed that
all treatments were superior to placebo in decreasing IOP at 3 months. The mean
reductions (95% credible intervals [CrIs]) for the highest-ranking class compared
with placebo were as follows: 1991: ?-blockers, 4.01 (CrI, 0.48 to 7.43); 1995:
?2-adrenergic agonists, 5.64 (CrI, 1.73 to 9.50); 1999: prostaglandins, 5.43
(CrI, 3.38 to 7.38); 2004: prostaglandins, 4.75 (CrI, 3.11 to 6.44); 2009:
prostaglandins, 4.58 (CrI, 2.94 to 6.24). LIMITATION: When comparisons are
informed by a small number of studies, the treatment effects and rankings may not
be stable. CONCLUSION: For timely recommendations when multiple treatment options
are available, guidelines developers should consider network meta-analysis.
