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

The purpose of this study was to compare the UVA absorption coefficients of multiple hydrogel and silicone hydrogel lenses (with and without pre-soaking in riboflavin) to those reported for the human cornea. The study also assessed the effect of different contact lens pre-soak times (in riboflavin) on the measured UVA absorption coefficients. Five lenses each of Omafilcon A, Nelfilcon A and Somofilcon A were pre-soaked in riboflavin and UVA absorption was assessed. Six lenses each of two hydrogel (Omafilcon A and Nelfilcon A) and three silicone hydrogel (Comfilcon A, Lotrafilcon A, and Samfilcon A) lenses were assessed before and after a 30-minute soak in riboflavin. One-way ANOVA was used for all comparisons. Absorption coefficients, without riboflavin, for Omafilcon A, Nelfilcon A and Somofilcon A were: 8.6 ± 1.2 cm
