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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to report on biometric characteristics of anterior segments of children eyes suffering nonacquired abnormalities in lens shape and position.
methodsThis case-control study was conducted on children presenting to the ophthalmology outpatient service of Alexandria Main University Hospital from September 2022 to March 2023 with developmental abnormalities in lens shape and/or position and age-matched control children presenting with congenital cataract. An initial office examination was followed by an examination under anesthesia for full clinical examination and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM).
resultsThe study included 57 eyes of 30 children and 51 eyes of 34 age-matched control children. The mean ± standard deviation age of study and control children was 68.4 ± 48.0 and 51.6 ± 22.6 months, respectively (
conclusionThe most prevalent nonacquired lens abnormalities are ectopia lentis and microspherophakia. Eyes with non-acquired abnormalities of lens shape and position have larger globes and flatter, thinner corneas than children eyes with congenital cataract.
