Intraoperative Event Mechanisms During the Early Adoption of Yamane Flanged Intrascleral Intraocular Lens (IOL) Fixation: Insights From Surgical Video Review.

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 To identify intraoperative events during early Yamane adoption using structured surgical video review, linking each event to procedural stage, plausible mechanism, and recovery action. Methods This retrospective study included 24 eyes undergoing Yamane flanged intrascleral intraocular lens (IOL) fixation between November 2024 and February 2025, representing early adoption by a single vitreoretinal surgeon. All procedures were video-recorded and reviewed postoperatively by a non-operating co-author experienced in Yamane fixation using a structured micro-step checklist to time-stamp events, assign plausible mechanisms, and record recovery actions. Secondary outcomes included operative timing and postoperative safety and visual outcomes. Results Intraoperative events occurred in eight eyes (33.3%): haptic slippage/disengagement (five), haptic breakage (one), mild vitreous hemorrhage (one), and suprachoroidal hemorrhage (one). Slippage most commonly involved the leading haptic and clustered around the "let-go" phase (M7) and subsequent trailing-haptic manipulation, with recurrent contributors including inadequate threading length and optic torque during nondominant-hand docking. Most events were recovered intraoperatively through repositioning, re-threading, or scleral re-tunneling; IOL exchange was required in one case of haptic fracture. Mean corrected distance visual acuity improved from logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) 0.96 ± 0.79 preoperatively to 0.47 ± 0.55 postoperatively. Conclusion Structured video review with micro-step classification standardizes linking events to stage, mechanism, and recovery, providing a practical framework for mentors to deliver targeted feedback and recommend technical refinements during training. Although based on a single-surgeon early series, this work introduces the checklist and warrants validation in broader cohorts.
