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

purposeTo evaluate the rotational stability of a toric extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL), using either slit lamp evaluation or image-processing software.

settingThree clinical practices in the USA.

designProspective unmasked randomized clinical trial.

methodsSubjects presenting for routine cataract surgery that were interested in improved near vision received toric EDOF lenses (TECNIS Symfony

resultsA total of 150 eyes had IOL orientation data available. Image analysis showed mean absolute lens orientation changes from 1 day to 1 month and 3 months of less than 2 degrees. The percentage of lenses exhibiting rotation of ≤5 degrees between any measured time points was 97% or higher. Results were similar, but significantly more variable, when IOL orientation was measured at the slit lamp.

conclusionThe toric EDOF lens evaluated here demonstrated rotational stability that exceeded the prior ANSI standard. The best method to determine IOL orientation changes was through image analysis.  .
