Bilateral trifocal IOL implantation in a pediatric case of cataract following steroid-therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeTo present the case of a 9-year-old child with bilateral posterior subcapsular cataract developed through steroid treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Cataract surgery with trifocal intraocular lens implantation was performed in both eyes. OBSERVATIONS: Uncorrected distance visual acuity increased from +0.3 and + 0.4 logMAR preoperatively to 0.00 and + 0.04 logMAR after surgery. Binocular uncorrected values for intermediate and near visual acuity were -0.04 logMAR and 0.02 logMAR after surgery, respectively. The patient did not report side effects like halos or glare and was able to participate in his daily activities (school and sports) without spectacles. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: This report represents the first description of a bilateral implantation of trifocal intraocular lenses in a pediatric cataract case with restoration of visual function in far, intermediate and near distance. Trifocal intraocular lenses to compensate for the loss of accommodation can be an option in selected cases of children with cataract.
