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

Diaphanoscopic illumination has the disadvantage that the intraocular spectrum is red-shifted due to transmission properties of the eyewall. This red-shift should be counteracted as well as the retinal risk should be reduced with adjusting the spectral distribution of the illumination light. Likewise, the illumination spectrum has to be adapted to the eye color of the patient. With the further development of a red, green, blue and white light-emitting diode (RGBW-LED) diaphanoscopy pen, the intensities of each color can be varied. The functionality of the LED pen is tested on ex-vivo porcine eyes. By measuring the transmission of the sclera and choroidea, the photochemical and thermal retinal hazard and the maximum exposure time are determined according to the standard DIN EN ISO 15004-2:2007. With this RGBW-LED pen the intraocular space can be illuminated clearly of up to 1.5 h without potential retinal damage according to DIN EN ISO 15004:2-2007. By adjusting the illumination spectrum the red-shift can be compensated and retinal risk can be reduced. By varying the LED intensities, the correlated color temperature in the eye can also be varied from cold white to warm white appearance as comfortable to the ophthalmologist. Additionally, a simple adjustment of the illumination to the eye color of the patient is possible. Using this RGBW-LED pen, the ophthalmologist can set the desired intraocular color appearance, which he prefers for special applications. He could also adjust the illumination to the eye color as this would reduce retinal hazard.
