Implanting toric implantable collamer lens displays better astigmatism correction than implantable collamer lens combined with manually limbal relaxing incision.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
backgroundThis retrospective study aimed to compare the outcomes of toric implantable collamer lens (TICL) surgery with those of implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation combined with limbal relaxing incision (LRI) in patients with low myopia and astigmatism.
methodsA total of 40 eyes of 28 patients who underwent TICL implantation and 40 eyes of 27 patients who underwent ICL implantation combined with manually LRI between 2021 and 2022 were included. Primary outcomes were manifest sphere and cylinder, intraocular pressure, visual acuity, and astigmatism parameters at 1 day, 1 week, and 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively.
resultsThe two surgeries showed comparable effects on manifest sphere and cylinder, intraocular pressure, and visual acuity (all p > 0.1). Surgery-induced astigmatism (SIA) was maintained as stable in the TICL group (1.73 to 1.68, p = 0.420), but was significantly reduced in the ICL/LRI group (1.74 to 1.17, p = 0.001) from preoperative to postoperative 6 months. The TICL group displayed significantly higher SIA and correction index at postoperative 1, 3, and 6 months than the ICL/LRI group (at 6 months: SIA, 1.68 (1.26, 1.96) vs., 1.17 (1.00, 1.64), p = 0.010; CI: 0.98 (0.78, 1.25) vs. 0.80 (0.61, 1.04), p = 0.018). No complications occurred during follow-up.
conclusionsThe effects of ICL/LRI are comparable to those of TICL in correcting myopia. TICL implantation displays better astigmatism correction than ICL/LRI.
