Safety and efficiency of lens cortex removal assisted by fluid jet.
Article in Heliyon, 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
Background: This retrospective study investigated the safety and efficiency of lens cortex removal assisted by a fluid-based capsular polishing technique called a fluid jet. Methods: This was a retrospective case study. A total of 300 patients were included in this study. All patients underwent phacoemulsification using two different surgical sequences: a fluid jet before irrigation/aspiration (I/A) and an I/A before the fluid jet. They were divided into two groups: the fluid jet before I/A group (group 1, 150 eyes) and the I/A before the fluid jet group (group 2, 150 eyes). The frequencies of posterior capsule rupture (PCR) and posterior capsule being sucked into the I/A tip were recorded. The times of the fluid jet, I/A cortex, and entire procedure were noted. Results: PCR occurred only in group 2. Compared with group 1, the posterior capsule being sucked into the I/A tip was more frequent in group 2 ( Conclusions: Fluid jet-assisted lens cortex removal is safe, time-saving, and simple to perform.
