Parameters influencing the effectiveness of femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy in white cataract surgery.

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 explore the parameters that may influence the effectiveness of femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy in white cataract surgery and its cutoff points. Design: A retrospective case series. Methods: This retrospective case series study enrolled patients with white cataract who had undergone surgery at Changsha Aier Eye Hospital from July 2018 to January 2020. All patients underwent femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy using a contact femtosecond laser device (LenSx, Alcon Laboratories, USA). The sex, age, corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), axial length (AL), lens thickness (LT), anterior chamber depth (ACD) and mean keratometry (Km) were recorded. All eyes were divided into successful capsulotomy group and unsuccessful capsulotomy group according to the capsulotomy integrity. Both groups were compared and two-sample Results: 60 eyes of 59 patients were included in the study. A successful capsulotomy was achieved in 36 eyes (60 %), while unsuccessful capsulotomy occurred in 24 eyes (40 %). Although no significant differences were observed in sex ( Conclusions: Femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy in white cataract is safe and effective. LT, ACD and age may influence the effectiveness of femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy in patients with white cataracts. LT is the main associated parameter and 5.21 mm is the optimal cutoff point for LT.
