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

Conventional eye drops are associated with several limitations, including rapid drug clearance and low bioavailability, with only about 5% of the administered drug reaching the cornea to demonstrate therapeutic efficacy. Thus, to address these challenges, indomethacin (IND)-loaded microemulsion (Me)-embedded soft contact lenses (CLs) were developed to improve ocular drug delivery. The D-optimal mixture design was employed to optimize the composition of the Me formulation. Independent variables included Capmul MCM (oil phase),
