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

purposeReport the outcomes of the implantable collamer lens (ICL) in myopic astigmatism using very high-frequency (VHF) digital ultrasound sizing.

methodsAnalysis of 42 consecutive ICL procedures using EVO and EVO+ (Visian V4c) lenses (STAAR Surgical) was done. ICL size was chosen using the ultrasound-based Kojima Formula with Insight 100 VHF digital ultrasound (VHFDU). Standard visual outcomes analysis was performed using 3-month data, also including contrast sensitivity, refractive and corneal vector analysis, and ECC. Postoperative lens position was evaluated using VHF digital ultrasound.

resultsAttempted SEQ was -10.83±3.39D (-4.40 to -16.98D). Cylinder was -1.46±1.15D (0.00 to -4.25D). One-year follow-up was available in 86% of the eyes and 3 months in 96%. Postoperative UDVA was 20/20 or better in 89% of the eyes, relative to 71% preoperatively. Postoperative SEQ refraction was ±0.50 D in 74% and ±1.00 D in 98% of the eyes. There was a gain of one line of CDVA in 43% of the eyes, 2 or more lines in 10% of the eyes, while there was a one line loss in 7% and no eyes lost 2 or more lines. The vector mean for the corneal SIA was 0.24 D Ax 100. Contrast sensitivity showed a statistically significant increase with a mean of 0.14 log units at 6, 12, and 18 cycles per degree (P<0.01). The mean change in ECC was -153±353 cells/mm

conclusionICL implantation resulted in high safety and efficacy but with an implantation vault range that ideally would be improved upon. VHF digital ultrasound of the lens footplate and posterior anatomical relations may provide essential information for evaluating postoperative vault outliers.
