Lens Material of the Eyelid Masquerading as Phakomatous Choristoma After Cataract Surgery.
Article in Cureus, 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
Cataract surgery is the most commonly performed surgery worldwide. While retained lens fragments after cataract surgery are common, to our knowledge, there is no prior case report of the lens material being deposited outside of the eye. Here, we present a case of an elderly patient with an upper eyelid lesion containing a fragment of the basement membrane and proteinaceous lens-like material, initially mistaken as phakomatous choristoma. Phakomatous choristoma is a type of benign congenital tumor consisting of lens tissue, which is thought to be secondary to aberrant migration during lens formation. Upon further review, it was later confirmed to be postoperative capsular material embedded into the eyelid.
