Anterior migration of intravitreal fluocinolone acetonide (Iluvien®) implant in a pseudophakic eye with intact posterior capsule.

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 describe a case of spontaneous anterior migration of intravitreal fluocinolone acetonide (Iluvien®) implant in a pseudophakic eye with intact posterior capsule. OBSERVATION: A 60-year old woman with proliferative diabetic retinopathy underwent uneventful pars plana vitrectomy and phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) implants in both eyes. She developed diabetic macular edema (DME) in her right eye which failed to respond to repeated intravitreal injections of Aflibercept 2mg/0.05ml (Eylea®). The patient received an intravitreal Iluvien® implant to treat the recalcitrant DME after she showed a favorable temporary response to dexamethasone intravitreal implant (Ozurdex™).Six months later she presented with pain in the right eye due to elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). The Iluvien® implant was found to be dislodged into the anterior chamber (AC) in the presence of an intact posterior capsule and stable PCIOL implant. The migrated Iluvien implant was removed and IOP was controlled with a glaucoma drainage valve as it failed to respond to maximum anti-glaucoma medication. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: Intravitreal Iluvien® implant could migrate into the AC in a previously vitrectomized eyes in the presence of an intact posterior capsule.
