Preoperative Ocular Biometric Parameters as Predictors of Intraocular Pressure Reduction After Phacoemulsification Cataract Surgery in Non-Glaucomatous Eyes.

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
purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the relationship between preoperative ocular biometric parameters and intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction after phacoemulsification in non-glaucomatous eyes.
methodsThe charts of non-glaucomatous patients who underwent phacoemulsification and lens implantation were retrospectively reviewed. IOP was measured preoperatively and 3 months after surgery. The change in IOP and its relation to ocular biometric parameters, including anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), axial length (AL), and central corneal thickness (CCT), measured preoperatively by LENSTAR LS 900 (Haag-Streit, Inc., Koeniz, Switzerland), were evaluated. The impact of each parameter on the alteration in IOP was assessed using a regression model.
resultsThe analysis included 171 eyes of 145 patients, with a mean age of 68.7 ± 11 years. The average IOP reduction following cataract surgery was 3.0 ± 2.9 mmHg, decreasing from a preoperative mean of 16.3 ± 2.8 mmHg. The amount of IOP reduction showed statistically significant correlations with preoperative ocular parameters. Eyes with shallower anterior chambers demonstrated a greater IOP reduction (r = -0.307,
conclusionsThe amount of IOP reduction is significantly greater in eyes with higher preoperative IOP, thicker lenses, and shallower anterior chamber after cataract surgery in non-glaucomatous eyes.
