Effect of Metabolic Syndrome on Blood Pressure Changes During Cataract Surgery.
Article in Asia-Pacific journal of ophthalmology (Philadelphia, Pa.). 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
purposeTo investigate effect of metabolic syndrome on blood pressure during cataract surgery with topical anesthesia.
designA single-centered, retrospective case series.
methodsConsecutive patients who were hospitalized and underwent phacoemulsification and insertion of intraocular lens with topical anesthesia in October 2016 were included. Perioperative blood pressure and pulse pressure were compared between patients with metabolic syndrome (metabolic group) and sex- and age-matched patients without metabolic syndrome (nonmetabolic group) at six time points: on admission, in the morning of the operation, 2 hours before the operation, at the point of entering the operation room, during the operation, and after the operation. Perioperative use of etizolam and nicardipine was compared between the two groups.
resultsThirty patients in the metabolic group and 30 in the nonmetabolic group were included. There was no difference in changes compared with the values on admission in systolic pressure and pulse pressure at any examination point between the two groups. There was no difference in changes in diastolic pressure between the two groups, except for at 2 hours before the operation (1.4 ± 9.6 mm Hg in the metabolic group vs -6.2 ± 8.5 mm Hg in the nonmetabolic group; P = 0.044). The number of patients who were administered etizolam was 5/30 (16.7%) in the metabolic group and 2/30 (6.7%) in the nonmetabolic group, showing no significant difference. No patients were administered intravenous nicardipine in either group.
conclusionsWell-controlled metabolic syndrome did not affect the changes in perioperative blood pressure during cataract surgery with topical anesthesia.
