Analysis of postoperative intraocular pathologies in patients with mature cataracts.
Observational study in PloS one, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeTo examine the prevalence and risk factors of intraocular pathologies after mature cataract surgery.
methodsThe medical records of 115 patients (115 eyes) diagnosed with brunescent or white cataracts, who underwent surgery at a single primary center between January 2018 and August 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Dense cataracts precluded preoperative fundus examination in all eyes; however, patients with fundus examination results within 3 months after cataract surgery were included. Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with intraocular pathologies.
resultsIntraocular pathologies were observed in 37 eyes (32.2%) 11.8 ± 13.9 days postoperatively. The most common abnormalities were drusen (6.1%), myopic degeneration (5.2%) and diabetic retinopathy (4.3%). Intraocular pathology in the fellow eye was associated with posterior segment pathology in mature cataract eyes (odds ratio, 47.72; P < 0.001).
conclusionsThe prevalence of each intraocular pathology found after mature cataract surgery was unremarkable. This study provides clinically useful evidence for clinicians to explain the risk of posterior segment pathology in patients with mature cataracts.
