Effectiveness of toric IOL and capsular tension ring suturing technique for rotational stability in eyes with long axial length.
Observational study in International ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of the toric intraocular lens (IOL) and capsular tension ring (CTR) suturing technique in eyes with long axial length (AL) with a high risk of toric IOL rotation.
methodsThis is a retrospective observational case series. The data files of patients who underwent a one-piece acrylic toric IOL (Tecnis Toric IOL and Acrysof IQ Toric IOL) implantation with the toric IOL and CTR suturing technique for cataract and astigmatism or toric IOL repositioning were analyzed. Inclusion criteria were a regular total corneal astigmatism of ≥ 1.5 D and an AL of ≥ 26.0 mm. Preoperative and postoperative astigmatism, uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), IOL rotation, intraoperative, and postoperative complications were evaluated.
resultsA total of 30 eyes of 29 patients were included in this study. The mean AL was 27.82 ± 1.53 mm (range, 26.08-31.07). UDVA revealed a statistically significant improvement from 0.84 ± 0.20 logMAR preoperatively to 0.04 ± 0.06 logMAR postoperatively (p < 0.001). The mean preoperative corneal astigmatism was 3.08 ± 1.01 D reduced to the postoperative residual astigmatism of 0.59 ± 0.32 D which was found also statistically significant (p < 0.001). Only 2 eyes (6.2%) had postoperative toric IOL rotation of 5° and 10°, respectively. The mean degree of postoperative rotation was 0.50 ± 2.01.
conclusionThis technique provided excellent rotational stability even in eyes with longer AL and did not require additional intervention.
