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
purposeThis study aimed to assess the optical quality of myopic and presbyopic IPCLs with different additional powers, and to investigate the effects of pupil size on the optical quality of these IPCLs using an in-vitro modulation transfer function (MTF) measurement system.
methodsLinear scatter functions (LSFs) were recorded using the OPAL Vector system and an eye phantom consisting of wet cells filled with a balanced salt solution. A myopic IPCL or a presbyopic IPCL was placed in the posterior chamber of this model. The MTF was calculated from the LSF using the fast Fourier transform techniques. The effective apertures were set at 2.0 to 5.0 mm in 1.0 mm steps.
resultsThe in-focus MTF values of the myopic IPCL and presbyopic IPCL with additional powers of + 2.0 and + 4.0 diopters at 100 cycles/mm for an effective aperture of 3.0 mm were 43%, 27%, and 24%, respectively. The in-focus MTF value of both myopic and presbyopic IPCLs was the highest when the effective aperture was set at 3.0 mm, and it gradually worsened when the effective aperture became larger than 3.0 mm at 20, 60, and 100 cycles/mm.
conclusionsBoth myopic and presbyopic IPCLs provided excellent MTF values, but the additional power profile can deteriorate optical performance in presbyopic IPCL-implanted eyes, even with a low additional power. Pupil size can influence visual quality in IPCL-implanted eyes for both myopia and presbyopia.
