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

Ocular colobomas are unusual congenital anomalies arising from abnormal ocular development and may involve different ocular structures, including the iris and lens. Typical ocular colobomas predominantly involve the inferonasal quadrant, in accordance with the inferonasal location and closure pattern of the fetal fissure. Atypical colobomas outside this region are unusual and may complicate clinical evaluation and surgical planning. We report the case of a 49-year-old male with congenital inferonasal iris coloboma associated with a superotemporal lens coloboma, sectorial cataract, superior posterior subcapsular cataract and localized zonular absence. Ultrasound biomicroscopy demonstrated localized lens thickening and increased sphericity corresponding to the area of zonular defect. Given the limited extent of zonular involvement and intraoperative capsular bag stability, phacoemulsification with in-the-bag intraocular lens implantation was performed without additional capsular support. Postoperatively, the intraocular lens remained well centered during two-year follow-up, and best-corrected visual acuity improved significantly.
