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

Intraoperative OCT (iOCT) is an innovative imaging modality that provides ophthalmic surgeons with real-time cross-sectional views of the surgical field. Recent advances in OCT technology, such as higher acquisition scanning rates, enable real-time video visualization. iOCT systems are widely used in both vitreoretinal and anterior segment surgeries. In corneal surgeries, iOCT imaging aims to optimize efficacy and safety by improving depth perception and enhancing visualization in cases of opaque optical media. iOCT is a valuable tool not only for experienced corneal surgeons, but also for training novice surgeons. This review summarizes the emerging applications of iOCT in corneal surgery, particularly in technically demanding lamellar keratoplasty procedures, as well as in various other corneal diseases and complications that require surgical intervention.
