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
backgroundAsymmetric multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) are now widely used in the modern cataract surgery, providing a good level of visual performance over a range of distances and high postoperative patient satisfaction. We report a case of improved visual quality after shifting the near segment of an asymmetrical multifocal IOL to the superotemporal placement in the dominant eye of a glaucoma patient. CASE SUMMARY: A 72-year-old woman with bilateral glaucoma underwent phacoemulsification in the dominant eye (left eye) with implantation of an asymmetrical multifocal IOL. Postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) was 0.0 logMAR (20/20 Snellen) and uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) was 0.1 logMAR (20/25 Snellen). Two weeks later, the patient presented to our clinic with decreased vision due to migration of lens epithelial cells to IOL anterior surface and edema of corneal endothelial cells. Anterior capsule polishing and superotemporal placement of near segment [+3.00 diopter (D) addition (add)] of IOL were performed. As a result, UDVA at the first week and first year after reposition was 0.0 logMAR (20/20 Snellen), and compared with 0.3 logMAR (20/40 Snellen) in the first week, the UNVA was improved to 0.0 logMAR (20/20 Snellen) one year after surgery.
conclusionThe postoperative inflammatory reaction and lens epithelial cells proliferation were obvious in this glaucoma patient. Capsule polishing and rotation of the lens were beneficial to the patient, which not only enhanced the patient's vision, but also improved the patient's satisfaction. Therefore, glaucoma patients need to be cautious of implanting multifocal IOLs. Placement of a near segment of an asymmetrical multifocal IOL in the dominant eye should be performed on an individual basis.
