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

Purpose: To describe a case of intraocular lens (IOL) tilt following transscleral IOL fixation with the Yamane technique and subsequent correction of tilt using 810-nm endoscopic diode laser. Observations: Our patient required lens exchange and secondary IOL implantation due to a dislocated 1-piece IOL in the bag causing iris chafe. After routine IOL fixation with the Yamane technique and a Zeiss CT Lucia 602 lens, the IOL tilted significantly in the immediate postoperative period. The lens tilt was subsequently corrected in the operating room using endolaser to melt and reshape (cure) the optic-haptic junction. Conclusions: IOL tilt is a known complication associated with the Yamane technique, which has seen increasing reports with the Zeiss CT Lucia 602 lens. Using endolaser to reconfigure the tilted optic into the desired orientation is a more novel procedure that can correct the lens tilt without the need for IOL exchange.
