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: Tecnis Eyhance (DIB00V) is a type of monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) categorized as "IOL-plus", a new concept developed to improve not only distance but also intermediate vision. However, its negative effect, eg difficulty in macular surgery that is occasionally seen with the multifocal IOL, has not been ruled out in combined surgery for epiretinal membrane (ERM) and cataracts. This study aimed to compare DIB00V with a conventional monofocal IOL (DCB00V) in terms of visual acuity and patient-reported outcomes of combined surgery for epiretinal membrane (ERM) and cataracts. Methods: This was a multicenter, prospective, nonrandomized, observational study conducted in Japan. Patients scheduled for combined cataract and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for cataract and ERM were enrolled. IOL was selected according to the rules originally applied in each facility. Best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA) and distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) at 3-month visits postoperatively, surgical parameters, and Japanese-modified Catquest-9SF Questionnaire scores were compared between the two IOL groups. Results: Sixty-two eyes implanted with DCB00V (Tecnis-1) and 79 eyes implanted with DIB00V (Eyhance) were analyzed. There was no significant difference in BCDVA with Eyhance (0.09 in logMAR) and Tecnis-1 (0.05 in logMAR, Conclusion: Eyhance provided comparable postoperative visual acuity to the conventional monofocal IOL in combined surgery for cataract and ERM, and surgical parameters are not different in the two types of IOL. Furthermore, Eyhance improved postoperative satisfaction in the overall population and significantly improved intermediate visual acuity in the preoperatively myopic population.
