Innovations and Outcomes in Astigmatism Correction During Cataract Surgery: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Cureus, 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
Astigmatism, a prevalent refractive error caused by an irregular curvature of the cornea or lens, can significantly affect visual acuity and the quality of life. Correcting astigmatism during cataract surgery is essential for achieving optimal postoperative visual outcomes. This comprehensive review examines recent innovations in astigmatism correction methods and their impact on cataract surgery. It provides an in-depth analysis of advancements such as toric intraocular lenses (IOLs), femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS), and new IOL technologies designed to address astigmatism with greater precision. The review also evaluates clinical outcomes, including visual acuity improvements, patient satisfaction, and safety considerations associated with these innovations. Additionally, it explores the cost-effectiveness of various techniques and highlights emerging trends and future directions in the field. By synthesizing current evidence, this review aims to offer valuable insights for clinicians and inform best practices in astigmatism management during cataract surgery.
