Optical coherence tomography angiography parameters after cataract surgery.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeTo evaluate the changes in macular blood flow after cataract surgery through optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A).
methodsIn this prospective case series, 50 patients who underwent uncomplicated cataract surgery by the resident were included. OCT-A images and complete ocular examinations were performed at baseline, 1 and 3 months postoperatively. The changes in OCT-A parameters including foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, vessel density (VD) of superficial and deep plexus, and central macular thickness were assessed before and after surgery. Cataract grading, intraocular inflammation, and duration of surgery were analyzed.
resultsFAZ was significantly reduced from 0.36 ± 0.13 mm
conclusionThe present study shows that CMT and vessel density of the macula significantly increase after uncomplicated cataract surgery, while the FAZ area reduces. Postoperative inflammation could be the possible explanation for the findings of this study.
