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

backgroundTo compare accuracy in intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in eyes undergoing combined cataract and Descemet stripping and automated endothelial keratoplasty (C-DSAEK) surgery of the following formulas: Barrett Universal II, EVO, Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 2, Kane and SRK/T.

methods72 eyes from 72 patients (38 males, (53%)) with a mean age 68.08 ± 8.69 years (from 44 to 88 years old) underwent combined C-DSAEK were included. The IOL powers to implant were calculated with Barrett Universal II formula targeting -1 D refraction. Preoperative and postoperative data were used to obtain the median of absolute prediction errors (MAE) targeting emmetropia with every tested formula.

resultsMeans of MAE calculated were +1.45 D for Barrett Universal II, +1.37 D for EVO, +1.48 D for Haigis, +1.38 D for Hoffer Q, +1.37 D for Holladay 2, +1.39 D for Kane and +1.31 D for SRK/T. SRK/T MAE showed major significant (p < 0.01) differences compared to the other formulas. DISCUSSION: Even if tested formulas are not able to accurately target emmetropia, SRK/T seems to be able to provide closer results in eyes undergoing C-DSAEK.
