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

aimsTo compare the visual effect and subjective satisfaction of cataract patients with different refractive states after trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.

methodsThis retrospective study describes 134 eyes of 86 patients that were implanted with trifocal IOL (TFNT00). Patients were allocated into three groups according to their preoperative axial length (AL): A group (AL ≤ 24 mm), B group (24 mm < AL < 26 mm), and C group (AL ≥ 26 mm). Postoperative visual acuity, defocus curve, visual quality and subjective satisfaction were collected and compared, and the postoperative follow-up time was at least 3 months (3 months to 3 years).

resultsThe uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA) and uncorrected near visual acuity (UNVA) of A group was significantly better than B group (P = 0.008 and P = 0.016). The UNVA of C group was significantly better than B group (P = 0.047). The defocus curve showed that the visual acuity of three groups from 40 cm to 5 m was better than 0.16 (LogMAR). The near vision satisfaction of B group was significantly lower than A group and C group (P<0.001 and P = 0.004).

conclusionsFor cataract patients with different refractive states, trifocal IOL implantation can provide good visual and refractive outcomes. For cataract patients with low and moderate myopia, the UIVA and UNVA were worse, and the subjective satisfaction of near vision was also worse than the hyperopia and emmetropia and the high myopia.
