Differences in Axial Length and IOL Power Based on Alternative A-Scan or Fellow-Eye Biometry in Macula-Off Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment Eyes.
Article in Ophthalmology and therapy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
introductionThis study was performed to observe the potential refractive prediction error based on alternative A-scan ultrasound and fellow-eye biometry for phacovitrectomy in macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) eyes.
methodsPhakic macula-off RRD eyes without axial length (AL) measurements obtained using IOLMaster were included. Vitrectomy without lens extraction was performed for RRD repair. Preoperative AL was measured using alternative A-scan ultrasound (AL-US). Postoperative AL was obtained in eyes with silicone oil tamponade (AL-SO) and preoperative fellow-eye biometry (AL-FE) using IOLMaster. Other eyes that faced the same preoperative situation but underwent phacovitrectomy based on fellow-eye biometry were recruited as controls.
resultsAL-US, AL-FE, and AL-SO were 25.39 ± 2.14 mm, 25.85 ± 2.16 mm and 26.08 ± 2.53 mm, respectively. The Bland-Altman agreement among AL-US, AL-FE and AL-SO was good (95.5%, 21/22 of cases were in the LoA). The mean IOL power calculated using AL-US (Power-US), AL-FE (Power-FE) and AL-SO (Power-SO) was 16.81 ± 7.19 D, 14.74 ± 6.95 D and 13.54 ± 8.32 D, respectively. The difference between AL-US and AL-SO was significant (P < 0.05), while that between AL-FE and AL-SO was not (P > 0.05). The difference between Power-US and Power-SO was significant (P < 0.05), while that between Power-FE and Power-SO was not (P > 0.05). Nine eyes underwent phacovitrectomy based on fellow-eye biometry and had a final postoperative myopic shift of 0.64 ± 0.78 D.
conclusionsAlternative A-scan ultrasound led to a significant difference in AL and a prediction error in IOL power, while fellow-eye biometry provided similar results to silicone oil-filled eyes after RRD repair.
