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: This study evaluated the impact of clear corneal incision (CCI) morphology on corneal endothelial cell density (ECD), astigmatism, and higher-order aberrations (HOAs) following implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation. Design: Prospective study. Methods: Sixty-five patients (65 eyes) undergoing ICL implantation were included. CCI characteristics were assessed with the AS-OCT CASIA 2, and HOAs were measured using the Pentacam. Corneal astigmatism changes were analyzed using Aplin's vector analysis. Results: The study divided the eyes into two groups: intact incision (29 eyes, with well-aligned wound architecture) and defective incision (36 eyes, with misaligned incision planes or endothelial gaps). At 3 months postoperatively, corneal thickness at the incision exit (CT-Ex) was significantly different between the groups ( Conclusions: Shorter IL and smaller exit angle during ICL surgery increase the risk of forming defective incisions, leading to more HOAs and greater ECD loss within the 3-month postoperative period.
