Changes in Anterior Chamber After Myopic and Hyperopic FS-LASIK.

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 evaluated the changes and explored influential factors in the anterior chamber after femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) on the basis of patients with different degrees of myopia, refractive status, and age.
methodsPatients underwent uneventful FS-LASIK for the treatment of ametropia. All patients with myopia were classified into a low age group (18-40 years) or high age group (> 40 years). Patients in the low age group (18-40 years) were subdivided into myopia and hyperopia groups. According to the preoperative spherical equivalent values, the myopia group was further divided into low myopia, moderate myopia, and high myopia groups. We measured the magnitude of anterior chamber depth (ACD), angle (ACA), volume (ACV), lens rise, central corneal thickness (CCT), and mean pupil power (MPP) of all patients using Sirius (version 3.2, CSO, Italy) before and 3 months post operation.
resultsA total of 140 eyes of 87 patients were evaluated. The magnitudes of ACD, ACA, and ACV decreased significantly postoperatively in both low age (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, respectively) and high age group (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, respectively) of patients with myopia, while an increasing tendency of ACD (2.85 ± 0.38 mm preoperatively vs 2.89 ± 0.09 mm postoperatively) and ACA (39.16° ± 7.30° preoperatively vs 39.37° ± 7.68° postoperatively) was found in hyperopia. There was no correlation between different degrees of myopia and the changes in the anterior chamber.
conclusionsAnterior chamber parameters decreased significantly and approximately in the same degree in low and high age groups postoperatively, while an increasing tendency of ACD and ACA was found in hyperopia, indicating that it is probably a corneal magnification effect that influences changes in the anterior chamber.
