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

Introduction: To describe the role of microscope integrated optical tomography (Mi-OCT) in removal of intrastromal corneal foreign body. Methodology: A young male presented with trauma to the right eye with sugarcane stick. Ocular examination revealed two sugarcane particles, approximately 3.5 mm in greatest dimension, embedded in the corneal stroma. For removal of foreign body, Mi-OCT was switched on and the area of interest was focused. Sugarcane particles appeared as hyperreflective structures embedded in the corneal stroma with everted edges of the overlying corneal epithelium and anterior stroma. Results: Both the sugarcane particles were removed successfully under real time images provided by Mi-OCT without causing any inadvertent damage to the corneal stroma. Conclusion: Mi-OCT can be used as an adjunct in emergency surgical procedures like removal of intrastromal corneal foreign bodies with accurate precision.
