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 evaluate the efficacy and stability of haptic sutured in-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL) in eyes with zonular instability.

methodsA total 60 eyes of 60 patients were included in this retrospective cohort study. Postoperative stability in three groups [haptic sutured IOL in the bag, IOL in the bag insertion with haptics oriented toward areas of zonulysis, IOL with capsular tension ring (CTR) in the bag insertion] were compared according to the IOL insertion methods. To evaluate the IOL stability, the changes of anterior chamber depth (ACD), refraction, contraction of anterior continuous curvilinear capsulotomy (CCC) area, and tilt of IOL were compared.

resultsThere was no significant difference in change of ACD (-0.04±0.01 mm in group of haptic sutured IOL, -0.07±0.01 mm in group of CTR insertion) and refraction (0.05±0.05 D in group of haptic sutured IOL, 0.37±015 D in group of CTR insertion) between the group of haptic sutured IOL in the bag and CTR insertion group. But in comparison of CCC contraction and IOL tilt, CTR insertion group showed less contraction (1.00%±0.52%) and less IOL tilt (2.66°±0.11°) than the group of haptic sutured IOL in the bag (6.32%±1.36%, 3.47°±0.11°, respectively). The CTR insertion group showed the least CCC contraction and the least tilt.

conclusionIn eyes with zonular instability, the method of haptic sutured IOL in-the-bag shows comparable stability in ACD and refraction in comparison with IOL with CTR in the bag insertion. The method of IOL only in-the-bag insertion shows the largest contraction of CCC and the largest tilt of IOL.
