Silicone Oil Migration into the Graft Interface after Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty in a Patient with a Past Surgical History of Silicone Oil Tamponade: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. 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
Introduction: Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) is widely accepted as an alternative to penetrating keratoplasty for the treatment of corneal endothelial failure. Surgical outcomes, however, may be compromised in eyes with complex surgical histories, particularly following vitreoretinal procedures. We describe a case of silicone oil deposition at the donor-recipient interface after DSAEK in a patient with prior silicone oil tamponade. Case Presentation: A 42-year-old man with pseudophakic bullous keratopathy previously underwent traumatic cataract surgery, pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil injection, subsequent oil removal, and implantation of an angle-supported anterior chamber intraocular lens. He later underwent anterior chamber lens explantation, Artisan iris-claw lens implantation, and DSAEK. By postoperative day 9, multiple silicone oil droplets were observed at the donor-recipient interface, with a further increase in size and number by day 14. An anterior chamber washout was performed; however, droplets persisted at the surgical interface. Conclusion: This case highlights the risk of silicone oil entrapment at the DSAEK donor-recipient interface in eyes with prior vitreoretinal surgery and silicone oil tamponade. Thorough removal of residual silicone oil before donor lenticule insertion is essential to minimize interface-related complications.
