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: To estimate the incidence of neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser (Nd:YAG) capsulotomy up to five years after cataract surgery with different single-piece acrylic monofocal IOLs in a Spanish cohort. Patients and Methods: Data were extracted from electronic medical records. Eligible participants were aged ≥65, had cataract surgery with one of five different acrylic monofocal IOLs (Alcon AcrySof, AJL LLASY60, Medicontur Bi-flex, IOL Tech Stabibag and Zeiss Asphina), and more than six months baseline data. Participants were followed up to five years from surgery and up to six months from Nd:YAG. The incidence of Nd:YAG was compared between the IOLs and multivariate analyses were conducted to identify predictors of Nd:YAG incidence at five-years after cataract surgery. Results: The initial cohort included 9545 patients with 14,519 eyes (53% female, average age 75 years). Of those, 3955 eyes were available for analysis five years after cataract surgery. Throughout the five years post-surgery, Nd:YAG incidence was consistently lower with Alcon Acrysof IOLs than the other IOLs. At five years the Nd:YAG incidence rate for Alcon Acrysof was 8.8%. In comparison, the incidence was 47.4% for AJL LLASY60 (OR = 9.54, 95% CI [6.57, 13.84]), 44.3% for Zeiss Asphina (OR = 8.35, 95% CI [5.85, 11.94]) and 44.0% for IOL Tech Stabibag (OR = 8.02, 95% CI [4.60, 13.84]). Conclusion: Alcon AcrySof IOLs have a consistently lower risk of Nd:YAG incidence over a long follow-up period after cataract surgery, highlighting the importance of IOL choice for patients' long-term outcomes.
