1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This systematic review investigates the prevalence and underlying causes of corneal edema following cataract surgery employing manual phacoemulsification. A comprehensive search encompassing databases such as PubMed, Embase, ProQuest, Cochrane Library, and Scopus was conducted, focusing on variables encompassing cataract surgery and corneal edema. Two independent reviewers systematically extracted pertinent data from 103 articles, consisting of 62 theoretical studies and 41 clinical trials. These studies delved into various aspects related to corneal edema after cataract surgery, including endothelial cell loss, pachymetry measurements, visual performance, surgical techniques, supplies, medications, and assessments of endothelial and epithelial barriers. This review, encompassing an extensive analysis of 3060 records, revealed significant correlations between corneal edema and endothelial cell loss during phacoemulsification surgery. Factors such as patient age, cataract grade, and mechanical stress were identified as contributors to endothelial cell loss. Furthermore, pachymetry and optical coherence tomography emerged as valuable diagnostic tools for assessing corneal edema. In conclusion, this systematic review underscores the link between corneal edema and endothelial cell loss in manual phacoemulsification cataract surgery. It highlights the relevance of factors like patient demographics and diagnostic modalities. However, further research is essential to unravel the complexities of refractive changes and the underlying mechanisms.
