[Opacification of intraocular lenses: laboratory and clinical findings].
Review in Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
backgroundSince their introduction the spectrum of complications of intraocular lenses (IOLs) has changed. Clouding of the IOL material is increasingly described in the literature as a reason for explantation.
objectiveThis study aimed to give an overview of the various pathologies of IOL material. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe currently relevant types of IOL material opacities are summarized as well as their effects on the optical quality. RESULTS AND
conclusionIn current IOL models calcification can occur in lenses made of hydrophilic acrylate, while in IOLs made of hydrophobic acrylate "glistenings" can develop. These different material opacifications have varying impacts on optical quality parameters and in general lead to an increased intraocular light scattering. In the case of intolerable IOL material opacification, the only treatment option is its removal and the implantation of a new IOL.
