Unexpected Poor Vision within 24 h of Uneventful Phacoemulsification Surgery-A Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Review on day one post uneventful phacoemulsification surgery is no longer standard practice due to the infrequency of complications when using modern cataract removal techniques. Clinicians are therefore likely to be unfamiliar with the potential causes of reduced vision when presented with a patient in the immediate postoperative period. The purpose of this review is to discuss the various differential causes of early visual loss, for the benefit of clinicians presented with similar patients in emergency care, with the use of an illustrative clinical case of paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM), which recently presented to the authors. A thorough literature search on Google Scholar was conducted, and only causes of visual loss that would manifest within 24 h postoperatively were included. Complications are inherently rare in this period; however, various optical, anterior segment, lens-related and posterior segment causes have been identified and discussed. Front-line clinicians should be aware of these differentials with different mechanisms. PAMM remains to be the only cause of unexpected visual loss within this time frame that may have no abnormal findings on clinical examination.
