Factors Influencing Astigmatic Correction Using Small-Incision Lenticule Extraction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Article in Journal of ophthalmology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 systematically review SMILE-based astigmatism correction and influencing factors. Methods: Literature was screened across eight databases. Pre- and post-SMILE cylinder, difference vector (DV), correction index (CI), magnitude of error (ME), angle of error (AE), and index of success (IOS) were compared. Bias was assessed using Cochrane's Risk of Bias, Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies, and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results: Elevated ocular residual astigmatism (ORA) resulted in greater postoperative residual astigmatism, accompanied by increased DV and IOS ( Conclusions: SMILE effectively corrects low, moderate, and high astigmatism, but high ORA patients tend to experience undercorrection. But accuracy requires vector planning.
