Severe Gliosis Over a Closed Macular Hole Following Anterior Lens Capsular Flap Closure.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Various management strategies, including the use of autologous and allogenic materials, are described for the management of persistent macular holes. An anterior lens capsular flap can be used, especially when cataract surgery is also planned, for a persistent full-thickness macular hole. We report a case of a gentleman in his 60s who underwent anterior lens capsular flap closure for a persistent macular hole. There was an improvement in visual acuity. However, he developed severe gliosis over the closed hole in the postoperative period. This could be due to the proliferation of residual epithelial cells in the lens capsule, micro damage to the retina, or an exaggerated inflammatory response to a foreign tissue placed over the retinal surface.
