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
Performing primary posterior capsulorhexis (PPCCC) during cataract surgery is an effective prevention of secondary cataracts. It is important not to damage the anterior vitreous membrane to minimize the possible complications and adverse side effects of this step of the surgery. Most authors use a viscoelastic material to protect the anterior vitreous membrane, injected into the space between the posterior lens capsule and the vitreous membrane through a small hole in the posterior capsule. The creation of posterior capsulorhexis using 25G forceps under an implanted intraocular lens while continuously filling the anterior chamber with irrigation fluid from an irrigation cannula, without the use of a viscoelastic material is, in our opinion, a safe, fast and cheap technique of PPCCC. This technique could theoretically lead to a lower incidence of postoperative complications such as higher postoperative intraocular pressure or anterior segment inflammatory response.
