Topical vs Peribulbar Anesthesia: Comparison of Anterior Chamber Depth and the Resultant Visual Outcome After Phacoemulsification.
Article in Clinical ophthalmology (Auckland, N.Z.), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 compare anterior chamber depth and postoperative visual outcome in patients undergoing phacoemulsification under topical vs peribulbar anesthesia. MATERIALS AND
methodsProspective, randomized, comparative observational study.Sample size: 110 eyes with 55 eyes each. Group I: Patients undergoing phacoemulsification under topical anesthesia.Group II: Patients undergoing phacoemulsification under peribulbar anesthesia.Once patients were selected, baseline a standard ophthalmic examination was done including best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction, IOP by NCT, anterior segment evaluation with slit lamp biomicroscopy, keratometry, axial length, and ACD measurement by IOL master. Post-operatively, the patients were reviewed at day 1, week 1, week 6 for the same parameters.Statistics:Quantitative variables: Paired and unpaired
resultsInter-group comparisons of post-operative change in ACD at 1-week post-op (
conclusionPost-phacoemulsification, the ACD is more after peribulbar anesthesia as compared to topical anesthesia. Post-op refractive outcome is better with the use of topical anesthesia.
