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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesThis study aimed to characterize the visual performance in patients with bilateral cataracts and a unilateral epiretinal membrane (ERM) undergoing cataract surgery with non-diffractive extended depth of focus (EDoF) intraocular lens (IOL) placement in both eyes and phacovitrectomy in the eye with ERM.

methodsThis was a prospective, descriptive, single-arm study. Visual outcomes were measured in monocular and binocular conditions in patients with bilateral cataracts and unilateral ERM stages 2 or 3 implanted with an EDoF IOL. At 6 months, visual acuity (uncorrected and corrected at different distances and contrast levels), contrast sensitivity, and visual disturbances assessed using a Light Distortion Analyzer were determined.

resultsWe included 22 patients (50% females, mean age of 71.4 ± 5.8 years). Mean monocular best-corrected visual acuities at 100% contrast were 0.07 ± 0.09, 0.23 ± 0.10, and 0.48 ± 0.14 logMAR for eyes with ERM, and 0.02 ± 0.08, 0.19 ± 0.11, and 0.41 ± 0.18 logMAR for fellow eyes for far, intermediate, and near distance vision, respectively. No differences were observed in visual outcomes, contrast sensitivity, or visual disturbances between ERM and non-ERM eyes, except for near distance. No unexpected adverse events were observed.

conclusionsNon-diffractive EDoF IOL can be considered in patients with cataracts and stage 2 or 3 ERM pursuing spectacle independence.
