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
Aim: To observe the change of capsulotomy opening diameter (COD) in aphakic eyes after primary congenital cataract removal and investigate its influencing factors. Methods: Ocular parameters, including corneal diameter (CD), axial length (AL), anterior and posterior COD (ACOD, PCOD), and age at surgery were recorded at primary congenital cataract removal and secondary intraocular lens implantation. The concentrations of 15 kinds of cytokines in aqueous humor samples collected at the primary surgery were detected. The change (Δ) of COD between two surgeries were described, and its association was analyzed. Results: Fifty eyes from 33 patients with congenital cataract who underwent primary and secondary surgery were enrolled. The changes in ACOD and PCOD were not statistically significant on the whole. ΔACOD was positively correlated with ΔCD and the concentrations of PDGF-AA, VEGF and TGF-β1. The concentration of FGF-2 and the interval between two surgeries showed negative correlations with ΔACOD and ΔPCOD. Conclusion: COD in aphakic eyes kept changing after primary surgery. The positive correlation between ΔACOD and ΔCD manifested the enlargement of ACOD was influenced by lateral eye growth. Meanwhile, ΔACOD was also associated with cytokines, indicating postoperative inflammation promoted the ACOD constriction.
