Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty in Microcornea for Pseudophakic Bullous Keratopathy With Anterior Chamber Intraocular Lens.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
To report a case of bilateral pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (PBK) in a patient having bilateral microcornea with pre-existing anterior chamber intraocular lens (ACIOL) who underwent Descemet stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) with a successful postoperative visual outcome. A 36-year-old female, diagnosed with microcornea and congenital cataract in both eyes underwent lens aspiration sequentially followed by ACIOL implantation in both eyes. The patient reported to our centre and was diagnosed with bilateral PBK with ACIOL with microcornea. She also had associated secondary glaucoma, postoperative chronic uveitis, and hyphaema, which were controlled with medical management first and taken into consideration while planning DSEK. The patient underwent manual DSEK without intraocular lens exchange under local anaesthesia in both eyes sequentially with a good visual recovery postoperatively in both eyes. Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK)/DSEK seems a viable option in patients with microcornea who develop PBK following cataract surgery with retained ACIOL where there is absence of capsular support as well as deficiency of iris tissue.
