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

Introduction: To assess the efficacy and safety of topography-guided LASIK (TG-LASIK) in correcting myopia and astigmatism and to evaluate clinical outcomes and visual quality postoperatively. Methods: We conducted a prospective study including patients aged 18-40 years with stable refraction for over 12 months. The outcomes measured were uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), contrast sensitivity, higher-order aberrations (HOAs), and patient-reported visual quality using a validated Quality of Vision (QoV) questionnaire. Results: A total of 86 eyes of 43 patients were analyzed. At 12 months postoperatively, 97% of the eyes achieved a UDVA of 20/20 or better, and 99% maintained or improved their corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA). The mean UDVA remained stable over time ( Conclusions: TG-LASIK is an effective approach in personalized refractive surgery, demonstrating safety and efficacy in improving visual quality for myopia and astigmatism. The improvement in visual quality, despite an increase in HOAs, suggests the effectiveness of personalized ablation profiles.
