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

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology is a rapid prototyping technology that is widely used in the medical field. It can be combined with computer-aided design, material manufacturing, and other technologies to construct medical-related appliances, human implants and even cell-based models or biological tissues. In the field of ophthalmology, the technology can be used to manufacture ocular anatomical models, glasses, intraocular implants, microsurgical instruments, drugs, etc. It can also enable future 'bioprinting', involving the refractive and nervous systems of the eyeball, with excellent development prospects in the field. This review introduces the development of 3DP technology in ophthalmology and discusses its application and potential.
