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

purposeTo evaluate the association of postoperative IOL tilt and decentration and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) by performing analyses using IOLMaster700 data and custom-developed software.

settingUniversity Eye Clinic Maastricht, Maastricht University Medical Center, Maastricht, The Netherlands.

methodsThis case series included patients after cataract surgery who underwent SS-OCT scans using the IOLMaster700 with custom-developed software for tilt and decentration analyses. The outcomes based on our custom-developed software were conducted along the pupillary axis (PA) and corneal topographic axis (CTA). Associations between tilt, decentration and CDVA were evaluated.

resultsA total of 168 eyes (168 patients) were analyzed. The maximum observed IOL tilt was 9.54° along the CTA and 3.69° along the PA. Maximum decentration reached 2.22 mm (CTA) and 2.17 mm (PA). Mean tilt was 1.21 ± 0.69° (PA) and 4.87 ± 1.52° (CTA), while mean decentration was 0.27 ± 0.25 mm (PA) and 0.27 ± 0.26 mm (CTA). Regression analyses showed no statistically significant associations between tilt or decentration and CDVA, irrespective of the reference axis used. For tilt along the PA, the regression coefficient (B) was 0.004 (95%CI -0.011, 0.020; P = 0.592), for tilt along the CTA, B was - 0.006 (95%CI -0.013, 0.001; P = 0.082). For decentration, B was 0.012 (95%CI -0.020, 0.044; P = 0.455) and 0.002 (SE = 0.018, 95%CI -0.034, 0.037; P = 0.925) along the PA and CTA, respectively.

conclusionIn this cohort, IOL tilt and decentration were generally small, with no detectable association with CDVA. The findings emphasize that different assessment methods should not be used interchangeably, and potential effects cannot be excluded given the limited sample and range of values.
