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

Objective: The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic investigation into the effects of ocular rotation on postoperative residual astigmatism in patients undergoing small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). Methods: A prospective observational cohort study involved 79 patients (153 eyes) with myopia and astigmatism who underwent SMILE surgery. Ocular rotational magnitude was measured using manual corneal and scleral marking with a slit-lamp microscopy assessment. Preoperative and postoperative (1- and 3-month) assessments included uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refractive error, and other relevant ocular parameters. Results: Residual astigmatism showed significant correlations with ocular rotation magnitude (r = 0.429, Conclusion: The magnitude of rotation shows a notably positive correlation with residual astigmatism during both the 1- and 3-month postoperative follow-ups. Thresholds of 1.5° (1 month) or 2.5° (3 months) prove predictive of residual astigmatism, with enhanced diagnostic precision at the later follow-up.
