Risk Ractors for Strabismus Surgery after Pediatric Cataract Surgery in the United States.
Article in Ophthalmology science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: To determine the cumulative incidence of strabismus surgery after pediatric cataract surgery and identify the associated risk factors. Design: US population-based insurance claims retrospective cohort study. Participants: Patients ≤ 18 years old who underwent cataract surgery in 2 large databases: Optum Clinformatics Data Mart (2003-2021) and IBM MarketScan (2007-2016). Methods: Individuals with at least 6 months of prior enrollment were included, and those with a history of strabismus surgery were excluded. The primary outcome was strabismus surgery within 5 years of cataract surgery. The risk factors investigated included age, sex, persistent fetal vasculature (PFV), intraocular lens (IOL) placement, nystagmus and strabismus diagnoses before cataract surgery, and cataract surgery laterality. Main Outcome Measures: Kaplan-Meier estimated cumulative incidence of strabismus surgery 5 years after cataract surgery and hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) from multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models. Results: Strabismus surgery was performed on 271/5822 children included in this study. The cumulative incidence of strabismus surgery within 5 years after cataract surgery was 9.6% (95% CI, 8.3%-10.9%). Children who underwent strabismus surgery were more likely to be of younger age at the time of cataract surgery, of female sex, have a history of PFV or nystagmus, have a pre-existing strabismus diagnosis, and less likely to have an IOL placed (all Conclusions: Approximately 10% of patients will undergo strabismus surgery within 5 years after pediatric cataract surgery. Children of younger age, female sex, and with a pre-existing strabismus diagnosis undergoing cataract surgery without IOL placement are at greater risk.
