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

This paper introduces a novel focusing method Refraction Topography (RT) for wide-angle refraction measurement. The agreement of the test results obtained using RT is evaluated against simulation results and expected refraction. RT develops a refraction algorithm on fundus images at various focusing statuses. Unlike conventional techniques for peripheral refraction measurement, RT requires the subject to stare at a stationary fixation target. The refraction algorithm calculates the focus measure for multiple images at the Point of Interest and formulates them into a focus profile. The maximum focus measure correlates with the optimal focus position. Refraction Characterization Function (RCF) is proposed to translate the focus position into refraction determination, thus forming the refraction topography. The refraction characterization of RT optical system is performed using Isabel schematic eye. Three test eyes of - 15 D, 0 D, and + 15 D are defined, and expected refraction is obtained through simulation on an independent test schematic eye. Both simulation results and experimental results are obtained by combining the test eyes and RT system. Test results are compared with simulation results and expected refraction. The study demonstrates agreement among the test results, simulation results, and expected refraction on three test eyes.
