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

aimTo compare the wavefront aberrations and corneal surface regularity between dry eye (DE) patients and normal subjects and assess its diagnostic performance for DE measured with OPD Scan-III.

methodsFifty right eyes of 50 DE patients and 31 right eyes of normal subjects were included. The examinations for ocular surface including logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution best-corrected distance visual acuity (logMAR BCVA) the ocular surface disease index (OSDI), tear film break-up time (TBUT) and corneal fluorescein staining (CFS). OPD Scan-III was used to measure anterior corneal aberrations including total corneal aberrations, high order aberration (HOA), coma, trefoil, spherical aberration (SA), standard deviation of corneal power (SDP), surface regularity index (SRI) and surface asymmetry index (SAI). Statistical analysis were assessed with nonparametric tests and Spearman's correlations. All parameters were also analyzed for sensitivity, specificity, and receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves.

resultsWavefront aberrations parameters including total corneal aberrations, HOA, coma, trefoil, and SA in DE group were significantly higher than those in normal group (

conclusionWavefront aberrations and corneal surface regularity are increased in DE patients and also correlated with ocular surface parameters. Wavefront aberrations parameters have potential to be indicators to diagnosis and monitor DE.
