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

Purpose: To compare the central corneal thickness, mitigation events, post-operative vision, and complications in patients who underwent cataract surgery using the CENTURION Setting: Wavikar Eye Institute, Thane, India. Design: A prospective comparative two arm, randomized, single blinded, interventional study. Methods: A total of 107 eyes were randomized to either the IOP-20 (n=55) or IOP-50 (n=52) group. All patients underwent phacoemulsification with an active fluidics system performed by a single surgeon; intraocular pressure (IOP) was set at either 20 or 50 mmHg. Results: The mean [SD] baseline CCT in the IOP-20 group was 511.9 [35.7] μm and it was 521.1 [34.8] μm in the IOP 50 group (p=0.18). It had changed to 530.6 [39.8] μm in the IOP-20 group and 539.5 [39.2] μm in the IOP 50 (p=0.24). The mean [SD] ECD at the end of day 90 was 2423.0 [204.6] cells/mm Conclusion: We found that the phacoemulsification with an active fluidics system handpiece at 20 mmHg provided a safe and stable environment for cataract surgery.
