Impact of Active Fluidics System on RNFL and GCL in Phacoemulsification.

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
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether cataract surgery performed using the Active Fluidics Materials and Methods: Inclusion criteria comprised age-related cataract N4 NC4, BCVA ≤ 0.6, and subjects aged >18 years. Exclusion criteria encompassed glaucoma therapy, anatomical pathologies, or retinal history. Preoperatively, participants underwent comprehensive ophthalmological assessment. Macular GCL and peripapillary RNFL evaluations were conducted using the Heidelberg Spectralis Results: No significant differences were found before and after surgery in GCL. Regarding RNFL thickness, a significant increase was observed in several sectors. Changes in the computerized VF test showed variations, but these were not statistically significant. Conclusion: We found no significant changes in GCL nor retinal function. However, there was an increase in peripapillary RNFL, likely due to underestimation caused by lens opacification before surgery. Overall, the Alcon
