Outcomes of intraocular lens exchange with combined pars plana vitrectomy and retropupillary iris-claw lens fixation.
Article in International journal of retina and vitreous, 2026. 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
purposeTo evaluate the surgical outcomes of intraocular lens (IOL) exchange combining pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with retropupillary iris‑claw IOL (ICIOL) fixation.
methodsThis was a retrospective series of 33 eyes of 32 patients undergoing PPV and secondary retropupillary ICIOL implantation. The primary outcomes included the best‑corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction (spherical equivalent [SE], refractive astigmatism), surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) and prediction error. Secondary outcomes included pachymetry, intraocular pressure, surgical time, and complications.
resultsThe mean BCVA improved from the baseline logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity of 0.73 ± 0.55 to 0.18 ± 0.24 at 6 months (p < 0.001). The mean final SE was − 0.40 ± 0.97 diopters (D) (p = 0.001), mean refractive astigmatism 1.36 ± 1.30 D (p = 0.955), mean SIA 1.39 ± 0.93 D, and mean prediction error − 0.28 ± 0.99 D. The mean pachymetry was stable (preoperative 562 ± 35.09 μm; postoperative 558 ± 42.15 μm; p = 0.122). The mean IOP was 15.85 ± 4.89 mmHg preoperatively and 14.72 ± 4.10 mmHg postoperatively (p = 0.563). The mean surgical time was 25.3 ± 4.5 min. Postoperative events included hyphema in 9.1%, cystoid macular edema in 6%, ocular hypertension in 6%, and IOL dislocation in 6%.
conclusionsIOL exchange with combined PPV and retropupillary ICIOL fixation achieved favorable visual and refractive outcomes with a short operating time and low complication rates, supporting this approach as an efficient option for eyes without capsular support.
