Evaluation of phacoemulsification (ultrasound) cataract surgery on the dynamics of the anterior segment of primary angle closure by AS-OCT.

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
objectiveTo explore the changes of anatomical biological parameters and dynamic parameters of the anterior segment (AS) before and after primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) surgery.
methodsThe clinical data of 82 patients (82 eyes) who underwent phacoemulsification in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed and divided into group A (angle closure, n = 38) and group B (normal open angle, n = 44). The anatomical biological parameters and dynamic parameters were compared between the two groups before and after surgery.
resultsCompared with group B, group A had smaller anterior chamber depth, higher vaulting, greater iris curvature, and smaller TISA500. Compared with group B, group A had smaller ΔTISA500 and ΔI-area. Compared with group B, the TISA500 was smaller in group A preoperatively, at 1 week, and 1 month after surgery (
conclusionAnterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) can effectively monitor the dynamic changes (DC) of the AS caused by phacoemulsification in patients with primary angle closure (PAC). Phacoemulsification can open the primary of PAC patients. However, their iris area does not change significantly. The biological characteristics of the iris itself may be a risk factor leading to PAC.
