Face and Content Validity of an Artificial Eye Model for Secondary Intraocular Lens Fixation via Yamane Technique.
Article in Clinical ophthalmology (Auckland, N.Z.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: To assess the face and content validity of an artificial eye model for secondary intraocular lens (IOL) fixation via the Yamane technique. Methods: Ophthalmologists and residents participated in a 90-minute simulation session on secondary IOL fixation via the Yamane technique. Hands-on practice of this technique was performed on an artificial eye, the Bioniko Okulo BR8. After, all ophthalmologists answered an 18-question survey assessing the face and content validity of the model. Survey responses were recorded on a 5-point double-headed Likert scale, ranging from strongly agree (1)-to-strongly disagree (5) (Figure 1). Results: Twenty-three surveys were completed. Respondents rated the survey with a median response of 1 (strongly agree)-to-3 (neutral). Highest ratings for the model were received for "usefulness for training residents", and "easier to set up and clean-up compared to a cadaver". Lowest ratings were received for realism of the model compared to cadaveric eyes. Statistical analysis revealed no significant difference among identified groups. Ratings for face and content validity were viewed favorably, both with an overall median response of 2.00 (agree). Conclusion: The Bioniko Okulo BR8 shows promise as a valid tool for practicing secondary IOL fixation via the Yamane technique. Considering recent guidelines in competency-based ophthalmology education programs, this model may be a valuable tool over traditional techniques for teaching and improving surgical skill amongst trainees.
