Macular morphology after cataract surgery with and without primary posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
Purpose: To evaluate changes in macular morphology after cataract surgery with and without primary posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (PPCCC). Methods: A prospective, intraindividual, randomized clinical trial was performed at Fuzhou University Affiliated Provincial Hospital, Fujian, China. A total of 130 eyes of 65 age-related cataract patients with normal macular morphology and function waiting for bilateral cataract surgery and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation were enrolled. Cataract surgery combined with PPCCC was performed in one eye, and routine cataract surgery in the fellow eye (NPCCC group). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) measurements were performed in all patients preoperatively and postoperatively on 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months. Results: A total of 120 eyes of 60 patients were capable to complete scheduled follow-ups and analyzed in the study. There was no statistically significant difference between the PPCCC group and NPCCC group in terms of subfoveal central retinal thickness (CRT), central 1-mm subfield (CSF), average retinal thickness in the middle (1-3 mm) and outer (3-6 mm) rings ( Conclusion: Cataract surgery with combined manual PPCCC does not increase the risk of CME and PVD in patients. PPCCC is a safe cataract surgery technique.
