Comparison between the Outcomes of Post-Operative Surgically Induced Astigmism between Inverted V Incision and Frown Incision for Manually Operated Small-Incision Cataract Surgery.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 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
Background: Due to its self-sealing suture-less incision, manually operated small-incision cataract surgery (MSICS) seems to be a glimmer of hope for addressing the cataract crisis in underdeveloped nations. Aim: This study has been conducted to compare the outcomes of post-operative surgically induced astigmism between inverted V (chevron) incision and frown incision for MSICS. Materials and Methods: 100 patients with uncomplicated senile cataracts were enrolled in this prospective cross-sectional study. Patients received the Frown and the Inverted V "Chevron" incisions, respectively, after being randomly assigned to groups A and B. Results: The incidence of patients with no surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) was greater in the inverted V incision. 20 (52.63%) and 19 (45.23%) patients reported SIA (0-1) in the frown group and the inverted V incision group, respectively. Conclusion: Successful outcomes were obtained in patients who underwent MSICS using either a frown incision or an inverted incision. Our study added to the existing body of information that an inverted V incision causes less medically induced astigmatism than a frown incision.
