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

Corneal endothelial diseases, such as Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy and bullous keratopathy represent the most common indications for keratoplasty. Replacement of the entire cornea by penetrating keratoplasty has been the gold standard in treating corneal endothelial diseases for many decades. However, recently new and innovative surgical techniques for selective endothelial replacement have been developed. These are Descemet stripping (automated) endothelial keratoplasty (DS(A)EK), Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK) and hybrid techniques of both. The distinct advantages and drawbacks of lamellar and penetrating techniques reveal the need of comparative studies to find out which method is suitable for which patient, particularly with regard to long-term visual rehabilitation.
