Ovarian Cancer and the Risk of Cataract Episodes: A Nationwide Cohort Study.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimThe aim of this study was to explore the potential association between ovarian cancer and cataracts using the Longitudinal Health Insurance Research Database (LHIRD) of Taiwan. PATIENTS AND
methodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted, and patients with ovarian cancer were age-matched with non-ovarian cancer patients in a 1:4 ratio. A total of 4,980 and 19,920 participants were classified into the ovarian cancer and non-ovarian cancer groups, respectively. The primary outcome was the presence of cataracts and cataract surgery. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to calculate the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the primary outcomes between the groups.
resultsA total of 484 and cataract events were recorded in the ovarian cancer group, while 2,383 cataract events were recorded in the non-ovarian cancer group. The ovarian cancer group had a non-significantly higher incidence of cataracts compared to the non-ovarian cancer group (aHR=1.07, 95%CI=0.97-1.19,
conclusionOvarian cancer is associated with a marginally higher incidence of cataracts and cataract surgery.
