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

purposeTo analyze the early changes in host and donor lenticule thickness after Descemet Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK).

methodsDSEK was performed on 32 eyes of 31 patients. Pre- and post- operative slit lamp examination and anterior segment Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was done on day-1, day-7, 1 month, and 3 months.

resultsThere were significant changes in host, lenticule, and total corneal thicknesses between day-1 and day-7, and day-7 and 1 month. There were significant changes in host thickness and total corneal thickness between 1 month and 3 months. Thickness changes were significant between day-1 and day-7, and 1 month and 3 months for thick and thin host, respectively, whereas these changes were observed both for thick and thin host between day-7 and 1 month. Similarly, significant changes were observed between day-7 and 1 month, and day-7 and 1 month in thin lenticule whereas in case of thick lenticule, it was observed till the 3 months follow-up period. There was a significant improvement in visual acuity till the 3 months follow-up period. No significant correlation was observed between visual acuity and host and lenticule thickness.

conclusionThe thicknesses of host and lenticule decrease continuously. Lenticule thickness stabilizes before host. Thinner cornea stabilizes earlier compared to thicker cornea.
