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 evaluate the influence of preoperative ocular and systemic variables on intraocular pressure (IOP) change following phacoemulsification cataract extraction with intraocular lens (CEIOL) implantation in eyes without glaucoma. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included adults who underwent standalone CEIOL at a single academic center between 2017 and 2020. Preoperative demographic, ocular, and systemic health data were extracted from electronic health records using an informatics-based approach and validated by chart review. Eyes with glaucoma or other preoperative ocular conditions known to affect IOP were excluded. Postoperative IOP data were collected for up to 2 years and censored at the time of any subsequent diagnosis or treatment likely to influence IOP. A linear mixed-effects model was used to assess associations between IOP change and preoperative ocular (e.g., IOP, axial length, central corneal thickness) and systemic variables (e.g., diabetes, body mass index [BMI], smoking status), accounting for inter-eye correlation. Results: A total of 1992 eyes from 1755 patients were included. Higher preoperative IOP ( Conclusion: Both ocular and systemic variables significantly influenced postoperative IOP change following CEIOL in non-glaucomatous eyes. Understanding these associations may improve clinical decision-making and help tailor IOP-related counseling for patients undergoing cataract surgery.
