Distribution patterns and determinants of the lens thickness-to-anterior chamber depth ratio in cataract patients.

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
Background: The lens thickness-to-anterior chamber depth (LT/ACD) ratio remains underexplored, despite its significance in optimizing cataract surgical outcomes and stratifying the risk of potential complications in aging populations. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the distribution patterns and determinants of the LT/ACD ratio in cataract patients. Methods: Bilateral ocular biometrics of 715 cataract patients were measured using Lenstar LS-900. The LT/ACD ratios of the right and left eyes were analyzed separately, with the results for the left eyes used to validate those for the right eyes. The LT/ACD ratio was compared using the Mann-Whitney or Kruskal-Wallis test. Spearman's correlation coefficients were used to evaluate its correlation with other biometrics. Univariable and multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to identify the determinants of the LT/ACD ratio. Results: The LT/ACD ratio was higher in women, in patients with shorter axial length (AL), and in older patients (all Conclusion: The distribution patterns of the LT/ACD ratio varied with sex, AL, and age, and the LT/ACD ratio correlated with similar but distinct determinants in both eyes. These findings help us better understand the interaction between LT and ACD in the eyes of cataract patients.
