Case Report: Early bilateral capsular contraction syndrome associated with Epstein-Barr virus-positive uveitis after cataract surgery.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
Objective: To report a case of capsular contraction syndrome complicated by viral uveitis during the early postoperative period after bilateral cataract surgery. Methods: A retrospective case report was conducted. Results: A 74-year-old woman with no significant medical history developed bilateral capsular contraction syndrome one month after bilateral cataract surgery. Further ophthalmic evaluation revealed bilateral uveitis. Laboratory testing and metagenomic next-generation sequencing identified Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in both peripheral blood and aqueous humor samples. Conclusion: EBV-associated uveitis may have contributed to the early development of bilateral capsular contraction syndrome in this patient after cataract surgery. In patients presenting with postoperative uveitis accompanied by capsular contraction, underlying viral infection should be considered as a potential contributing factor.
