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

Purpose: To evaluate ocular aberrations, visual and refractive outcomes in eyes implanted with a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) with a positive asphericity profile. Patients and Methods: This prospective observational study included 42 eyes (27 patients) that underwent routine cataract surgery and implantation of RayOne EMV monofocal aspheric IOL. PentacamWave was used to assess corneal (at 4.5 and 6.0-mm diameter) and total ocular wavefront aberrations (at 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, and 4.5-mm pupil). Postoperative assessments between 1 and 3 months included manifest and automated refraction, uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity (UDVA, CDVA), and distance-corrected intermediate and near visual acuity (DCIVA, DCNVA). Results: Postoperatively, UDVA was 0.06 logMAR, with 100% eyes achieving CDVA of 20/25 or better. DCIVA was 0.19 logMAR, with 66.7% of the eyes achieving 20/30 or better. DCNVA was 0.24 logMAR, with 54.8% of the eyes 20/30 or better. Automated refraction measured with various devices revealed myopic results compared to manifest refraction (-0.24 ± 0.32 D). The mean corneal spherical aberration (4 Conclusion: In vivo wavefront analysis of eyes implanted with this enhanced monofocal IOL suggests that the IOL's positive asphericity profile incremented the pre-existing corneal aberrations, leading to useful intermediate and near vision while maintaining distance-corrected visual acuity better than 20/25 in all eyes.
