Effectiveness of a Standardized Combination of Intracameral Mydriatics and Anaesthetic on Mydriasis during Cataract Surgery with Coexisting Diseases.

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
purposeTo examine the effectiveness of a standardized combination of intracameral mydriatics and anesthetic (SCIMA) on mydriasis in patients with coexisting diseases such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXF) during phacoemulsification.
methodsPatients with cataract were included in the study if they achieved pupil dilation diameter ≥ 6.0 mm after the administration of mydriatic eyedrops (ME) during the first visit (V1). During the second visit (V2), pupil size measurements were obtained for phacoemulsification surgery with SCIMA. Effective mydriasis was defined as a pupil diameter ≥ 6.0 mm just prior to capsulorhexis without the use of additional pupil dilating agents. The measurements after ME administration during V1 and after SCIMA use during V2 were compared.
results103 patients (103 eyes) were divided into 3 groups: cataract and DM (
conclusionsPatients with cataract and such comorbidities as DM or PXF are likely to achieve effective pharmacological mydriasis during cataract phacoemulsification after SCIMA application. Mydriasis after ME is slower and larger, while SCIMA is faster.
