Ciliary sulcus implantation of intraocular lens in manual small incision cataract surgery complicated by large posterior capsule rupture.

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
The present study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficiency of ciliary sulcus implantation of intraocular lens (IOL) in patients that had undergone manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) complicated by large posterior capsule rupture (LPCR). A total of 11 eyes taken from 11 patients in Brazzaville, Republic of the Congo, that had experienced LPCR following MSICS were included in the current study. A rigid single-piece IOL (5.5 mm optic, 12.50 mm overall length) was implanted into the ciliary sulcus. Postoperative follow-up assessments evaluated visual acuity, anterior segment biomicroscopy, IOL centration and position, and fundus biomicroscopy. The median follow-up time was 3.7 months (range, 2-6 months). All patients experienced vision improvement: Uncorrected visual acuity 2 months following surgery was 0.3-0.5 in 9 patients and >0.5 in 2 patients. Postoperative complications included pronounced anterior segment inflammation (1 patient), mild corneal endothelium edema (3 patients), residual cortex (1 patient) and intraocular pressure elevation (1 patient). Significant IOL decentration and tilt were not observed in any patients. The results of the present study indicate that ciliary sulcus implantation of a rigid single-piece IOL may be a feasible and effective method of treating patients that have experienced LPCR complications following cataract surgery, as it provides satisfactory visual acuity outcomes. Appropriate intraoperative management may reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.
