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

objectiveTo report preliminary experience using the BeyeonicsOne (Beyeonics Vision, Haifa, Israel) digital visualization platform and the utilization of its three-dimensional (3D) head-mounted display (HMD) in cataract surgery.

methodsAn interventional case series including patients who underwent cataract surgery using the 3D HMD platform at the Tel Aviv Medical Center. The system uses the HMD unit to display high-resolution real-time 3D surgical field images. Collected data included patient demographics, ocular comorbidities, risk factors for complex cataract surgery, cataract grading, preoperative and postoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and intra- and postoperative complications.

resultsIn total, 60 eyes of 60 subjects (mean age 73.1 ± 8.4 years) were included. Mean preoperative BCVA was 0.40 ± 0.30 logMAR (Snellen equivalent ~20/50) and improved to 0.10 ± 0.10 logMAR (Snellen equivalent ~20/25, p < 0.001). None of the patients suffered BCVA loss. All procedures and follow-ups were uneventful except for one case of a posterior capsular tear and one case of post-surgical cystoid macular edema.

conclusionThe visualization platform and its embedded 3D head-mounted display can be easily used in routine cataract surgery with the added benefits of improved ergonomics, high picture quality and enhanced image control.
