A review of corneal biomechanics: Mechanisms for measurement and the implications for refractive surgery.
Review in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Detailed clinical assessment of corneal biomechanics has the potential to revolutionize the ophthalmic industry through enabling quicker and more proficient diagnosis of corneal disease, safer and more effective surgical treatments, and the provision of customized and optimized care. Despite these wide-ranging benefits, and an outstanding clinical need, the provision of technology capable of the assessment of corneal biomechanics in the clinic is still in its infancy. While laboratory-based technologies have progressed significantly over the past decade, there remain significant gaps in our knowledge regarding corneal biomechanics and how they relate to shape and function, and how they change in disease and after surgical intervention. Here, we discuss the importance, relevance, and challenges associated with the assessment of corneal biomechanics and review the techniques currently available and underdevelopment in both the laboratory and the clinic.
