Inferior Removal of Dislocated Polymethyl Methacrylate Intraocular Lens and Scleral Refixation in Glaucomatous Eyes.

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
introductionThe aim of this study was to report a technique for the removal of dislocated polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) intraocular lenses (IOLs) in glaucomatous eyes.
methodsDislocated PMMA IOLs were removed from the inferior sclerocorneal incision, and sutureless intrascleral fixation of each IOL was performed to preserve the intact superior conjunctiva and sclera for future trabeculectomy or to maintain a functional filtering bleb of trabeculectomy.
resultsIn two cases, the condition of the bleb did not change, while the intraocular pressure improved or did not change after the procedures. IOL fixation was stable with no complications, such as tilt, decentration, or extrication of the IOL haptics.
conclusionThis procedure of preserving the superior conjunctiva and sclera can maintain the function of the bleb, superior cornea and sclera and may contribute to the success of future trabeculectomy.
