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

purposeThe aim of our study was to compare the long-term efficacy and safety of "epi-off" conventional and "epi-off" accelerated corneal cross-linking (CXL) in patients with progressive keratoconus.

methods"Epithelial-off" ("Epi-off") CXL using the conventional technique (3 mW/cm

resultsIn both groups, Kflat presented similar results: decrease at 1 year (

conclusion"Epi-off" accelerated and conventional CXL have the same efficacy in terms of improvement in visual and topographic outcomes.
