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

introductionWe evaluated the rotational stability and factors associated with it in patients implanted with Eyecryl™ roric IOL after phacoemulsification surgery. We also assessed the factors associated with refractive efficacy in these patients.

methodsThe present study is a secondary analysis to study the rotation in 121 eyes from 94 patients. We included the following data: demographics; preoperative refraction and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), type of astigmatism, axial length, anterior chamber depth, and aqueous depth; power of the implanted IOL, axis of the implanted IOL, and predicted residual error; magnitude and direction of postoperative rotation of the IOL; postoperative vision and refraction (day 30 ± 3 days).

resultsAbout 86% of the eyes had postoperative astigmatism of ≤ 0.25 D and 9% had 0.26 to 0.50 D on day 30. The median (IQR) rotation of the IOL on day 30 (± 3 days) was 1 (1, 3) degree and the mean (SD) rotation was 2.31 (2.97) degrees. Eyes with high rotation had significantly higher median (IQR) preoperative sphere (more positive side) (1.50 D [0, 1.75] vs 0 D [- 1.0, 0.75]; p = 0.013) and lower mean (SD) axial length (22.6 [0.9] vs 23.2 [0.9]; p = 0.02). The mean (SD) postoperative refractive efficacy was 85.1 (13.6) %; it was significantly lower in those who had with-the-rule astigmatism compared with against-the-rule astigmatism (69.6% vs 86.7%; p = 0.046). The proportion of eyes with difference in lines between postoperative UDVA and CDVA was significantly higher in those with low postoperative efficacy (70.0% vs 21.8%; p < 0.001).

conclusionThe Eyecryl™ toric intraocular lens had low rotation at 1-month post-surgery. Higher rotation was associated with a higher preoperative sphere (more positive side) and shorter eyes. Postoperative efficacy was higher in eyes with against-the-rule astigmatism. Eyes with < 75% efficacy and/or ≥ 5° rotation showed over-correction on vector analysis.
