Morphological changes in the iridocorneal angle and their relationship with intraocular pressure after infantile cataract surgery.

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
aimTo evaluate morphological changes in the iridocorneal angle after pediatric cataract surgery.
methodsChildren who underwent primary infantile cataract surgery were included and 64 eyes from 41 children, including 18 with unilateral cataracts (18 eyes) and 23 with bilateral cataracts (46 eyes) were examined. All patients underwent two gonioscopic examinations to evaluate the iridocorneal angle, before the primary lens removal and before the secondary intraocular lens implantation. The anatomical changes in the iridocorneal angle and the relationship between intraocular pressure (IOP) and iridocorneal angle changes were also analyzed.
resultsThe iridocorneal angle was wide in 64 eyes before and after surgery. The trabecular meshwork pigmentation, number of iris processes in every quadrant of the iridocorneal angle, and the width of the ciliary body band in the superior and inferior quadrants at the second gonioscopic examination were significantly increased compared to those at the first examination (
conclusionThe main changes after pediatric cataract surgery include an increase in trabecular meshwork pigmentation and number of iris processes, IOP gradually increase and has positive correlation with trabecular meshwork pigmentation and anterior insertion of iris process.
