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
backgroundHyperopia is a kind of refractive error in which incoming light is focused behind, instead of on, the retina wall due to insufficient accommodation by the lens. It is likely affected by ethnicity, geography, and a family history of hyperopia or accommodative esotropia and is categorized as low (≤ 2.00D), moderate (2.00-4.00 D), and high (> 4.00D). Beyond hyperopia refractive error, patients may have poor accommodative function or visual perceptual skills.
objectiveThis study aimed to present the latest approaches to planning trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) and toric trifocal IOL implantation for residual refractive errors in young adults with high astigmatism and hyperopia and increase the patients' best visual outcome and satisfaction using Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) after implantation.
methodsEighty eyes of 40 consecutive patients who underwent refractive lensectomy were included in this retrospective study. It included patients aged 20-45 years seeking spectacle independence with pre-operative high spherical hypermetropia of 4D or higher and astigmatism of 3D or higher. Patients' treatment status was categorized as trifocal IOL (n=40) and toric trifocal IOL (n=40).The mean patient follow-up time was six months after IOL implantation. First, we assessed visual acuity and satisfaction for both groups and then examined laser vision correction results of patients who were dissatisfied after IOL implantation (trifocal IOL group) and underwent SMILE surgery to increase satisfaction level.
resultsThere were no statistically significant differences between trifocal IOL and toric trifocal IOL for near (UNVA), intermediate (UIVA), and distance (UDVA) uncorrected visual acuity. Comparisons related to patient satisfaction six months after IOL implantation were statistically significant for using a computer and night driving. In the trifocal IOL group, compared to pre-operative values, sphere and cylinder at six months were significantly improved.
conclusionIn young adults, toric trifocal and trifocal IOL provided sufficient results in visual acuity; however, patients were dissatisfied after implantation. This study reported patient satisfaction levels, including quality of life and life without glasses by using Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) surgery.
