[Critical endothelial procedures during posterior lamellar graft preparation and transplantation].
Review in Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundIn view of the very low proliferation rate and functional importance of the corneal endothelium in maintaining corneal transparency, safeguarding the integrity of this monolayer plays a central role in posterior lamellar corneal transplantation. Several critical endothelial procedural stages are necessary to carry out such a transplantation.
objectiveThis article presents various preparatory and operative approaches for carrying out the necessary and critical stages within the framework of posterior lamellar corneal transplantation and concentrates on the question of optimization.
methodsA review of our own studies and studies of other groups is presented.
resultsFor the performance of critical endothelial procedural steps, a variety of approaches are available. These range from preparation and insertion of the transplant, through the manipulation during centralization up to the effects of postoperative air or gas bubble tamponade.
conclusionBecause endothelial damage can permanently impair the integrity of lamellar transplants, a minimal handling and no touch policy should be strived for in all critical procedures. Long-term data on the follow-up course will show which of the procedures favored by various authors lead to the best postoperative results.
