1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo evaluate the association between intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS) and concurrent medications containing selective alpha1A receptor antagonists as well as nonselective alpha1-adrenergic receptor antagonists, bulbus length, patient age and gender.

methodsWe performed a prospective data acquisition of IFIS occurrence and grading, and retrospective evaluation of concurrent medications, bulbus length, patient age and gender of all patients undergoing cataract surgery over a 6-month period.

resultsIFIS was observed in 119 of 947 cases (12.6 %). 31 of those 119 patients (26.1 %) had a concurrent medication with a drug that is associated with a higher risk of causing IFIS. Tamsulosin was the drug most commonly associated with IFIS (n = 11), followed by a combination of drugs (n = 7), doxazosin (n = 4), quetiapine (n = 4), finasterid (n = 2), prothipendyl (n = 2), and mianserin (n = 1). Bulbus length and age did not show any significant association with occurrence or grade of IFIS. Gender distribution among IFIS cases was 57.1 % males (n = 68) and 42.9 % (n = 51) females.

conclusionsThe occurrence of IFIS has to be expected with a variety of concurrent medications. The number of IFIS cases and the percentage of females in this series are higher compared to previous reports. The observations might be due to a rising awareness of surgeons or to an increasing number of causative medications on the market.
