Incidence and Remission of Post-Surgical Cystoid Macular Edema Following Cataract Surgery in Eyes With Intraocular Inflammation.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
purposeTo evaluate the incidence, remission, and relapse of post-surgical cystoid macular edema (PCME) following cataract surgery in inflammatory eye disease.
methodsA total of 1859 eyes that had no visually significant macular edema prior to cataract surgery while under tertiary uveitis management were included. Standardized retrospective chart review was used to gather clinical data. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression models with adjustment for inter-eye correlations were performed.
resultsPCME causing VA 20/50 or worse was reported in 286 eyes (15%) within 6 months of surgery. Adults age 18-64 years as compared to children (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 2.42, for ages 18 to 44 years and aOR = 1.93 for ages 45 to 64 years, overall P = .02); concurrent use of systemic immunosuppression (conventional aOR 1.53 and biologics aOR = 2.68, overall P = .0095); preoperative VA 20/50 or worse (overall P < .0001); cataract surgery performed before 2000 (overall P = .03) and PMCE in fellow eye (aOR = 3.04, P = .0004) were associated with development of PCME within 6 months of cataract surgery. PCME resolution was seen in 81% of eyes at 12 months and 91% of eyes at 24 months. CME relapse was seen in 12% eyes at 12 months and 19% eyes at 24 months.
conclusionsPCME occurs frequently in uveitic eyes undergoing cataract surgery; however, most resolve within a year. CME recurrences likely are due to the underlying disease process and not relapses of PCME.
