1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Cataract remains a leading cause of global blindness, highlighting the importance of effective surgical management. Hence, we evaluated 212 cataract surgeries performed by Indian medical residents to assess the utility of preoperative risk stratification in predicting complications and guiding case allocation. We found that high risk scores were significantly associated with increased intraoperative complications and poor postoperative visual outcomes (p < 0.001). Logistic regression identified preoperative BCVA, risk score and resident experience as significant predictors of complications. Thus, risk stratification is a valuable tool in enhancing patient safety and surgical training in teaching hospitals.
