1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 present a case of bilateral zonular cataract without visual deterioration. OBSERVATION: A 41-year-old Taiwanese Han male presented with severe left ocular pain after being hit by iron filings while working. The iron dust was removed in a local hospital but due to a scleral laceration diagnosis he was referred to our hospital for further management. On examination, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/25 in the right eye and 20/200 in the left eye were obtained, while the before BCVA was 20/25 in the both eyes. The slit-lamp biomicroscopy demonstrated bilateral zonular cataract and left scleral full-thickness laceration with vitreous prolapse. The scleral suture procedure was then performed smoothly and the patient discharged three days later with BCVA in the left eye recovered to 20/30. CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: The bilateral zonular cataract without associated systemic disorder is a rare form, which may be found incidentally with no visual symptoms.
