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 functional outcomes and complications of pars plana vitrectomy with scleral flaps covered with a two-point sutured scleral-fixated intraocular lens (SFIOL).
methodsA retrospective, single-center, single-surgeon case study, including 97 cases. About 25 G pars plana vitrectomy with a two-point sutured scleral-fixated IOL was used as a surgical modality.
resultsThis study included 97 patients and eyes with scleral IOL fixation, with a mean follow-up of 6 months. The indications for SFIOL were divided into cases of surgical aphakia (63, 64.94%), hyper-mature cataract not suitable for routine procedure (5,5.15%), traumatic cataracts not suitable for routine procedures (18,18.5%), and other categories (11,64.94%). In this study, the median ± standard deviation of best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) values in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (LogMAR) pre, post 1 month, 3 months, 6 months showed statistically significant improvement in VA with P value <0.001. The most common complications as number of cases seen in our study were cystoid macular edema (four cases), Descemet membrane folds (three cases), epiretinal membrane (five cases), exposed suture knots (one case), iatrogenic retinal break (two cases), iatrogenic retinal touch (two cases), IOL edge glare (one case), IOL tilt (one case), secondary glaucoma (three cases), post-op uveitis (one case), retinal detachment (one case), no complications 73 cases out of total cases.
conclusionThe mean BCVA improved from preoperative to postoperative 1 day, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months ( P < 0.001) using this technique. This technique, which is more time-consuming, offers advantages over other available options, including improved stability, reduced risk of complications, and enhanced visual outcome.
