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 To compare intraocular lens (IOL) stability and reversibility in phacovitrectomy with air or gas tamponade between one- and three-piece intraocular lenses (IOLs). Study design This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted at Saitama Medical University Hospital from January to July 2023. Methods This study involved 19 patients who underwent phacovitrectomy with either air or sulfur hexafluoride gas tamponade and postoperative anterior segment optical coherence tomography. Patients who underwent NSP-3 (NIDEK Co., Ltd., Japan) or NX70s (Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Japan) implantation were evaluated. The displacement force (mN) of the IOL was evaluated in a verification experiment using the NSP-2 (NIDEK Co., Ltd., Japan) and the NX70s. The NSP-2 and NSP-3 share the same lens platform. Results The median age was 66 (58, 77) [median (quartiles)] years for NX70s (n=8) and 67 (55, 71) years for NSP-3 (n=11). The anterior chamber depth (ACD) and IOL position values were substantially elevated after the air or gas disappeared for both IOLs. Comparing the IOLs for the ACD and IOL positions at each time point, no significant difference was found in the ACD and IOL position values in 100% gas or air. However, ACD and IOL position values of the NSP-3 were markedly higher than those of the NX70s in 0% gas or air. In the verification experiment, NSP-2 required a higher IOL displacement force than the NX70s. Following 48 h of 0.5 mm push, the percentage change in the axial distance was smaller for NSP-2 (-6.9%) than for NX70s (-15.5%). Conclusion NSP3 was as stable as NX70s in phacovitrectomy with tamponade and demonstrated better reversibility than NX70s.
