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
Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the impact of long-term ICL implantation on lens density, focusing on the relationship between the anterior subcapsule, anterior lens density, and implantable collamer lenses (ICL) position after ICL V4c implantation. Methods: This retrospective study included 145 eyes with ICL V4c implantation and average follow-up of 4.2 years (range: 3-8 years). The control group comprised 65 myopic eyes without surgery. All participants underwent comprehensive ophthalmologic examinations, and lens density were measured using quantitative Scheimpflug images. Results: The central anterior subcapsular densities were 8.62 ± 1.39% preoperatively, 8.99 ± 1.31% at 3 months, and 9.29 ± 0.95% at the last follow-up post ICL implantation (p < 0.001). At last follow-up, the anterior subcapsular densities were 9.29 ± 0.95% in the central region, 8.92 ± 0.79% in the long axis of peripheral region, and 8.62 ± 0.76% in the short axis of peripheral region (p < 0.001). The densities were lower in the non-surgical group than in the ICL implantation group. One eye (0.69%) was discovered to have anterior subcapsular and nuclear opacification. Conclusion: The density of the anterior subcapsule increased over time after ICL implantation. Preoperative refraction and pupil size were correlated with changes in anterior subcapsule density. The central anterior subcapsule density was higher than that at the periphery, and the peripheral density of the long axis was higher than that of the short axis.
