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

aimTo investigate a novel phacoemulsification system "EVA NEXUS" (D.O.R.C., Dutch Opthalmic Research Center) in comparison to the existing system "EVA" in clinical use. And to compare both phacoemulsification systems in terms of efficiency, safety and postoperative inflammatory activity.

methodsIn this study standardized cataract surgery was performed on both eyes of the study participant, using the "EVA system" (control group,

resultsThere were no statistically significant differences between both groups regarding intraoperative safety parameters including effective phacoemulsification time (

conclusionBoth systems show a high level of safety and efficency with similar results in terms of safety parameters including postoperative inflammatory activity and endothelial cell loss as well as visual and refractive outcomes. Although statistically not significant, the EVA NEXUS system tends to cause less postoperative inflammation with lower prostaglandin E2 levels and lower anterior chamber flare values.
