Clinical Course of Iris Retraction Syndrome Associated With Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment: A Report of Three Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
This report describes three cases of iris retraction syndrome (IRS) associated with long-standing rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), all presenting with hypotony, abnormally deep anterior chambers, and ciliary body detachment, often accompanied by dense cataracts and uveitis-like findings that initially obscured the underlying pathology. In each case, anti-inflammatory therapy led to partial resolution of anterior segment abnormalities, subsequently revealing RRD that required pars plana vitrectomy with or without combined cataract surgery. Postoperatively, most cases maintained stable IOP, although one developed secondary ocular hypertension necessitating glaucoma therapy. These cases highlight that IRS can mask its primary cause; careful evaluation for RRD or other causes is warranted when posterior iris bowing is observed in hypotonic eyes, and long-term IOP monitoring remains important even after successful treatment of the underlying pathology.
