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

purposeTo evaluate the postoperative visual outcomes from day 1 to 1-year postoperative follow-ups after lenticule extraction in high myopia above -10D

methodsA retrospective review identified 49 eyes treated with the SCHWIND ATOS using lenticule extraction for high myopia above -10D, with at least 6 months of follow-up. Standard visual and refractive outcomes, as well as astigmatism outcomes, were analyzed.

resultsAt the last follow-up, 73 % of the eyes achieved uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) of 20/25 or better. Additionally, 88 % of the eyes had postoperative UDVA within 1 line of preoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), with only 6 % of eyes losing 2 lines of CDVA. The postoperative spherical equivalent (-0.07±0.55D) was within 0.75D in 92 % of the cases, demonstrating excellent stability from 1-week to 1-year postoperative follow-ups (with only 10 % eyes changing by 0.5D of defocus). Postoperative refractive astigmatism (0.10±0.20D) was highly accurate, with 96 % of the cases within 0.5D and 93 % within 5 degrees of the attempted axis. The astigmatic correction index (1.02±0.28) showed 76 % of the cases within 10 % deviation.

conclusionsIn this pilot cohort, lenticule extraction using SCHWIND ATOS for high myopia above -10D is safe and effective. The procedure shows stability from 1-week to 1-year postoperative follow-ups and suggests accurate and precise corrections for both defocus and astigmatism.
