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

purposeEvaluating efficacy and safety of iris-supported phakic lenses (Verisyse) for high myopia treatment.

methodsPatients treated with Verisyse (Abbott Medical Optics, Santa Ana, CA, USA) intraocular lens (IOL) implants were evaluated retrospectively. Patients with follow-up periods of more than 5 years were included in the study. Pre- and postoperative fifth-year spheric equivalent (SE) of manifest refraction values, uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuities (UDVA and CDVA, respectively), and endothelial cell density (ECD) values were recorded. Complications were evaluated.

resultsForty-seven eyes of 31 patients were included in the study. Pre- and postoperative fifth year mean SE was - 12.50 ± 3.51D and - 0.72 ± 0.40D, respectively. Pre- and postoperative fifth-year UDVA was 1.56 ± 0.22 and 0.33 ± 0.18 logMAR (p < 0.001), respectively. The safety index (pre- and postoperative CDVA) was 1.39 ± 0.63 at the 5-year follow-up (p > 0,05). The efficacy index (ratio of mean postoperative UDVA to mean preoperative CDVA) of the patients was 1.14 ± 0.60. The mean postoperative endothelial cell loss at 5 years was -7.42%. None of the patients had lost 25% of their preoperative endothelial cells at 5-year follow-up. The mean postoperative endothelial cell loss was -3.05% at 1 year, -1.23% between years one and three, -1.02% between the third and fifth years.

conclusionVerisyse IOL implantation is an effective and safe for high myopia surgical treatment. However, the 5-year follow-up period is not sufficient to evaluate the safety profiles in terms of endothelial cells.
