Influence of implantation of diffractive trifocal intraocular lenses on standard automated perimetry.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThis prospective comparative study aimed to investigate the influence of diffractive trifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) implantation on standard automated perimetry.
methodsPatients with no diseases affecting the visual field had undergone cataract surgery following the implantation of trifocal or monofocal IOLs from July 2019 to August 2020 were recruited. The normality of the anterior and posterior segments and absence of glaucomatous optic nerve cupping were confirmed preoperatively by slit-lamp examination. Standard automated perimetry was performed using Humphrey Visual Field 10-2 testing, 2-3 months after cataract surgery in only one eye per patient. The mean deviation (MD) and foveal sensitivity were compared between IOLs in eyes with acceptable reliability indices and best-corrected visual acuity of 20/25 or better.
resultsAmong the 83 eyes of the 83 patients included, 39 and 29 eyes eligible for perimetry analysis had trifocal and monofocal IOLs, respectively. The mean MD and foveal sensitivity in eyes with trifocal IOLs were significantly lower than those in eyes with monofocal IOLs (P < 0.021), with mean differences of 0.77 and 1.01 dB, respectively.
conclusionThe comparison in nonglaucomatous eyes demonstrated that the influence of trifocal IOLs on standard automated perimetry was greater than that of monofocal IOLs.
