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

We present a case of intraocular lens (IOL) subluxation following micropulse transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (MP-TSCPC) procedure for glaucoma that is resistant to medical therapy. A 71-year-old male presented to his routine glaucoma follow-up appointment and was found to have medically uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP) in the right eye. Throughout his visits, the IOP ranged between 26 and 35 mmHg. The IOL was in position without the presence of pseudoexfoliation, and the cup-disc ratio was 0.8 in the right eye. The patient was treated with MP-TSCPC and no immediate complaints or complications were noted post-procedure. However, 5 weeks postoperatively, he presented with IOL subluxation. MP-TSCPC is becoming a popular choice of treatment in lowering IOP. To the best of our knowledge, IOL subluxation has not been reported as a complication. Since the procedure is relatively new, further long-term research is warranted to determine the possible effects and complications.
