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

purposeTo evaluate the effect of primary posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorrhexis (PPCCC) on the positional stability of IOLs.

methodsThis study is a prospective intra-individual comparative randomized controlled trial including 31 patients (62 eyes). Eyes of the same patient were randomly assigned to the PPCCC group (18 right eyes and 13 left eyes) or group without PPCCC (NPCCC group). Eyes in both groups were implanted with a one-piece foldable hydrophobic acrylic IOL via routine cataract surgery. Patients in the PPCCC group underwent additional manual PPCCC before IOL implantation. Examinations were performed 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months postoperatively. IOL tilt (x, y), decentration (x, y), anterior chamber depth (z) and refractive prediction error data were collected and analyzed with Pentacam.

resultsPostoperatively, the range of IOL position change over 3 months in PPCCC group was comparable to NPCCC group, which indicated smaller value in every tilt and decentration index. PPCCC eyes showed comparable tilt and decentration with NPCCC eyes in this study endpoint: mean tilt (x, y), decentration (x, y) and anterior chamber depth (ACD) were 1.04 ± 0.56°, 0.90 ± 0.64°, 0.239 ± 0.140 mm, 0.233 ± 0.133 mm and 4.01 ± 0.32 mm, respectively, in the PPCCC group vs. 1.09 ± 0.76°, 1.10 ± 0.82°, 0.252 ± 0.153 mm, 0.244 ± 0.155 mm and 4.01 ± 0.38 mm, respectively, in the NPCCC group. Refractive prediction error in the PPCCC group demonstrated a mild hyperopic shift vs. the NPCCC group (0.13 ± 0.50 vs. 0.05 ± 0.39; p = 0.208), and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) did not differ between the two groups (0.027 ± 0.014 vs. 0.059 ± 0.185; p = 0.377).

conclusionsComparable IOL tilt, decentration, ACD and refractive prediction error were observed in PPCCC eyes with that underwent routine cataract surgery. Little IOL position fluctuation and good visual acuity were shown in PPCCC group over time. TRAIL REGISTRATION: The study was registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Register Center on May 27th, 2020 (protocol code ChiCTR2000033304, 27/05/2020).
