Postoperative amblyopia in children with congenital cataracts: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the prevalence of amblyopia following congenital cataract surgery in children and evaluate key prognostic factors, including age at intervention, cataract phenotype, and follow-up duration. We systematically searched PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library for studies published between January 1, 1981, and March 1, 2023. We included clinical trials, case series, and observational studies to analyze surgical timing, visual outcomes, and complications. Among 28 studies (2,167 patients, 3,371 eyes), the pooled amblyopia prevalence was 62% (95% CI: 0.55-0.69, I
