Flapless one-knot suture: a novel surgical technique for transscleral fixation of C-loop intraocular lenses.

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
aimTo describe a novel suture approach for transscleral fixation of C-loop intraocular lenses (IOL) and to compare the surgical outcomes with the four-haptics posterior chamber (PC)-IOL technique.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 16 eyes of 16 patients who underwent transscleral fixation of C-loop PC-IOLs using a flapless one-knot suture technique, which were followed up for longer than 17mo. In this technique, the capsulorless IOL was suspended using a single suture for transscleral fixation of four feet. Then we compared its surgical outcomes and complications with the four-haptics PC-IOLs using the Student's
resultsSixteen patients of 16 eyes with a mean age of 58.3±10.1y (42-76y) who received transscleral C-loop IOL implantation due to trauma, vitrectomy, or cataract surgery with inadequate capsule support showed improved visual acuity. The difference was not significant between two IOLs except the surgery time (
conclusionThe novel flapless one-knot suture technique for transscleral fixation of C-loop IOL is a simple, reliable, and stable technique.
