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
We report a case of acute angle closure secondary to pupillary block caused by a dislocated intraocular lens (IOL)-capsular tension ring (CTR) complex. A 68-year-old woman, who had undergone cataract surgery 28 months earlier, presented with acute right eye pain and blurred vision. Examination revealed elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) of 80 mmHg, corneal edema, and anterior chamber shallowing, with anterior displacement of the IOL-CTR complex observed on anterior-segment optical coherence tomography. An anterior chamber paracentesis and subsequent vitrectomy were performed to remove the dislocated complex. After scleral fixation of a new IOL and management of an epiretinal membrane, the patient's vision improved, with her best-corrected visual acuity reaching 1.2 and IOP stabilizing at 18 mmHg without medication. This case highlights the potential for IOL-CTR dislocation to cause pupillary block and acute angle closure, emphasizing the need for timely diagnosis and comprehensive surgical intervention to preserve visual function.
