Predictive Factors of Complications and Visual Outcomes after Pediatric Cataract Surgery: A Single Referral Center Study from Türkiye.
Observational study in Turkish journal of ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objectives: To evaluate the predictive factors of complications and visual acuity outcomes in pediatric cataract patients. Materials and Methods: This retrospective, observational clinical study included 80 eyes of 50 patients treated for pediatric cataracts between 2010 and 2020. The eyes were divided into Group I (congenital cataracts, n=38) and Group II (developmental cataracts, n=42). Group II was also divided into Group IIA (aphakic, n=21) and Group IIB (pseudophakic, n=21). The effects of the age, laterality, cataract morphology, intraocular lens implantation, preoperative nystagmus/strabismus, and intraoperative anterior hyaloid rupture on complications and final best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA; logMAR) were evaluated. Results: The median (interquartile range) age and follow-up time were 28 (5-79) months and 60 (29-84) months, respectively. There was a significant difference in mean final BCVA between Group I (0.79±0.46) and Group II (0.57±0.51) (p=0.047); however, no difference was observed between Group IIA and Group IIB (p=0.541). Having congenital cataract (p=0.045), preoperative nystagmus/strabismus (p=0.042), total/mature cataract (p<0.001), and postoperative complications (p=0.07) were significantly associated with final BCVA. However, in multivariate analysis, only total/mature cataract (β: 0.52, p<0.001) and having any complication (β: 0.24, p=0.018) were associated with final BCVA. Congenital cataract and intraoperative anterior hyaloid rupture were the only significant risk factors of postoperative complications on univariate (p=0.027 and p=0.003, respectively) and binary logistic regression analysis (odds ratio [OR]: 2.95 [95% confidence interval: 1.07-8.15], p=0.036 and OR: 4.28 [95% confidence interval: 1.55-11.77], p=0.005, respectively). Conclusion: Total/mature cataract and the presence of any postoperative complication adversely affected the final BCVA. Having a congenital cataract and intraoperative anterior hyaloid membrane rupture increased the risk of complications.
