Postprocedural Disorders of Eye and Adnexa Admissions Profile.
Article in Clinical optometry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine hospitalisation profiles related to postprocedural disorders of eye and adnexa in England and Wales. Patients and Methods: This was an ecological study using publicly available data extracted from the "Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) database" in England and the "Patient Episode Database for Wales (PEDW)" for the period between April 1999 and April 2020. Diagnostic code for postprocedural disorders of eye and adnexa (H59) was used to identify hospital admission. We used the chi-squared test to assess the difference between the hospital admission rates between 1999 and 2020. Results: Hospital admission rate decreased by 6.3% [from 4.98 (95% CI 4.79-5.17) in 1999 to 4.67 (95% CI 4.50-4.84) in 2020 per 100,000 persons, trend test, p<0.05]. The most common hospital admissions causes were other postprocedural disorders of eye and adnexa "Chorioretinal scars after surgery for detachment." The age group 75 years and above accounted for 44.3% of the total number of admissions. Hospital admission rate among females decreased by 30.2% [from 5.90 (95% CI 5.61-6.19) in 1999 to 4.12 (95% CI 3.89-4.35) in 2020 per 100,000 persons]. Hospital admission rate among males increased by 30.2% [from 4.02 (95% CI 3.77-4.26) in 1999 to 5.23 (95% CI 4.97-5.49) in 2020 per 100,000 persons]. Conclusion: This study revealed that hospital admission rates for postprocedural disorders of the eye and adnexa decreased over the course of the study period. Eye and adnexa disorders accounted for the preponderance of hospital admissions among the elderly. Further research is required to identify risk factors that can be avoided.
