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 clinical handleability and acceptability of a novel preloaded intraocular lens (IOL) delivery system for implantation of the TECNIS ZCB00 IOL (Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision, Inc., Santa Ana, CA, USA) during routine small-incision cataract surgery. SUBJECTS AND

methodsIn this prospective, open-label, noncomparative, unilateral or bilateral, multicenter study, adult subjects with unilateral or bilateral cataracts scheduled for IOL implantation were enrolled. Surgeons and surgical technicians completed per-eye day-of-surgery and end-of-surgical-day questionnaires. The primary endpoint of the study was the rate of acceptable overall clinical performance of the preloaded IOL delivery system. Other endpoints included additional responses from the questionnaires, preimplantation incision size, and safety.

resultsThe study included 91 eyes that underwent cataract surgery and IOL implantation using the preloaded delivery system and were available for the 1-day postoperative visit. Five surgeons and 14 surgical technicians from four investigational sites participated in the study. The rate of acceptable overall clinical performance was 100% (91/91) of eyes, with most responses (78/91; 85.7%) being the highest possible rating of 5 (very satisfied). Favorable responses by most surgeons and surgical technicians regarding additional endpoints further highlighted the handleability and acceptability of the preloaded delivery system. No ocular adverse events or lens findings (ie, no cases of IOL instability, haptic breakage, IOL marking, or crimping) were reported.

conclusionThe results of this study demonstrated that this preloaded IOL delivery system was safe and effective during routine small-incision cataract surgery.
