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

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of two yellow filters (category 1: visible light transmission {VLT} from 80% to 43%) of Essilor (Kiros® and Lumior®) on standard automated perimetry (SAP) indices and Pelli-Robson (PR) contrast sensitivity (CS) testing in healthy individuals. Materials and methods This study is a prospective comparative study of 31 eyes of 31 healthy individuals aged 32.14 (8.13) years (14 males and 17 females). All participants underwent a series of three visual field (VF) examinations (24-2, Swedish Interactive Thresholding Algorithm {SITA} standard) with the Humphrey field analyzer (HFA II 740, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) and three CS examinations with the PR chart (Precision Vision, Inc., Woodstock, IL). VF and CS examinations were carried out as follows: (a) no filter (NF), (b) with the yellow filter Kiros® (KIROS), and (c) with the yellow-orange filter Lumior® (LUMIOR). The effect of the two yellow filters on global VF indices (glaucoma hemifield test {GHT}, mean deviation {MD}, pattern standard deviation {PSD}, and visual field index {VFI}) and on CS score was evaluated and compared. Results When comparing the three pairs NF-KIROS, NF-LUMIOR, and KIROS-LUMIOR, no difference was presented on the global VF indices. However, a statistically significant difference was detected in the CS scores for all three pairs, favoring KIROS. It is important to note that while this difference was statistically significant, it did not reach clinical significance. Conclusions The use of yellow filters (category 1: VLT of 75% and 65%) does not affect the global VF indices and the CS of healthy individuals but significantly improves their CS score. Further studies are required to explore the clinical significance of these findings.
