Intraocular lens selection in diabetic patients: How to increase the odds for success.
Review in World journal of diabetes, 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
The incidence of cataracts is significantly higher in diabetic individuals, particularly in younger age groups, with rates quadrupled in those under 65 and doubled in those over 65 compared to non-diabetics. Cataract surgery in diabetic patients poses many challenges: Poor epithelial healing, decreased corneal sensitivity, increased central corneal thickness, decreased endothelial cell count, variable topography, poor pupillary dilatation, anterior capsular phimosis, posterior capsular opacification (PCO), chances of progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR), zonular weakness, and vitreous prolapse and diabetic macular edema. Selection of an appropriate intraocular lens (IOL) is crucial for visual rehabilitation and monitoring DR. The choice of IOL in diabetic cataract patients is a challenging scenario. Square-edge IOLs are favored for their capacity to mitigate PCO, whereas hydrophilic counterparts may incur calcification in the setting of proliferative DR. The advisability of premium IOLs for achieving spectacle independence warrants judicious evaluation, particularly in the presence of advanced retinopathy. Optimal IOL placement within the capsular bag is advocated to minimize postoperative complications. Rigorous preoperative assessment and informed patient counseling regarding IOL options are indispensable for optimizing surgical outcomes. This review article covers various aspects regarding the choice of IOLs in different case scenarios and complications in the diabetic population.
