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 objective of this study is to know the effect of blue light filter (BF) intraocular lenses (IOL) on colour vision of Sudanese patiens as BF IOLs are relatively new in Sudan and its effect on Sudanese patients is not yet studied. Methods  This was a descriptive cross-sectional observational study. Data collection was done through interview and pretested structured questionnaire containing three sections: (i) personal data, (ii) past medical and ocular surgical history, and (iii) visual acuity (VA), the anterior and posterior segment exam result, and the D15 photopic color vision test result. Results In this study, 206 eyes of 103 patients were enrolled. Of them, 57 (55.3%) were females and 46 (44.7 %) were males. The mean age of the participants was 58.38 years±11.488 (SD). Furthermore, 81 patients (78.64%) achieved normal D15 color vision test results, while 22 patients (21.4%) had abnormal results. There was a significant effect (P=.00) on photopic color vision perception. Finally, the gender-wise performance showed an insignificant difference (P=.933) with 78.3% of the males having normal D15 color vision test and the females having slightly better results with 78.9 %.  Conclusions The results suggested that implantation of BF IOLs has a significant effect on photopic color vision perception.
