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 anterior chamber angle (ACA) parameter changes and their correlation with intraocular pressure (IOP) in primary versus secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation following congenital cataract (CC) surgery, using swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (SS-ASOCT). Methods: Preoperative and postoperative (1 and 6 months) SS-ASOCT images from 89 eyes of 64 patients undergoing CC surgery were analyzed. ACA parameters (AOD500, ARA500, TISA500, TIA500) were measured. Generalized estimating equations assessed ACA parameter changes, and multivariable analysis determined relationships between ACA parameters and IOP. Results: Compared to normal eyes, aphakic eyes showed larger AOD500 and ARA500 but smaller TISA500 (P < 0.05). After IOL implantation, both primary and secondary pseudophakic eyes (P-PsE and S-PsE) exhibited significant postoperative reductions in ARA500 and TISA500 (P < 0.05), mainly in the nasal angle. Multivariable analysis revealed corneal thickness positively correlated with IOP in both groups, while nasal AOD500 (β = -0.685, P < 0.05) and nasal TIA500 (β = -0.109; P < 0.001) showed negative associations in S-PsE. Angle abnormalities were identified during the annotation of images, associated with poorer visual outcomes. Conclusions: Significant postoperative reductions in ARA500 and TISA500 occurred in both primary and secondary IOL implantation for CC, predominantly in the nasal angle. Although overall angle parameters were comparable, S-PsEs uniquely demonstrated IOP correlations with pupil diameter and nasal angle, suggesting distinct IOP regulation mechanisms. Translational Relevance: SS-ASOCT-derived nasal anterior chamber angle metrics may provide an accessible biomarker for monitoring angle remodeling and intraocular pressure regulation following congenital cataract surgery.
