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
purposeTo evaluate the predictive accuracy of an adaptive optics visual simulator (SimVis Gekko™) in replicating the optical performance of a nondiffractive extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL), AcrySof® IQ Vivity™ (Alcon, Fort Worth, USA), prior to cataract surgery.
methodsProspective, single-center, observational, comparative study. A total of 16 eyes from 16 patients with early-stage cataract underwent simulation of the AcrySof® IQ Vivity™ IOL using the SimVis Gekko™ device prior to phacoemulsification. Postoperative outcomes were assessed 1 month after bilateral implantation of the IOL. Monocular defocus curves, visual acuity (VA) at far, intermediate and near distances, and contrast sensitivity were compared between the simulated and actual postoperative results. Correlation between VA and pupil size was analyzed.
resultsThe simulated defocus curve closely matched the postoperative performance, with VA differences of less than one line for vergences between − 1.50 D and + 1.00 D. The only point with more than 1 line of difference occurred at − 3.00 D. Simulated contrast sensitivity was slightly lower than postoperative values but followed a similar trend across spatial frequencies. Distance and intermediate visual acuity were significantly better postoperatively than under simulation, while near VA showed no significant differences. A significant Pearson correlation was found between pupil size and near visual acuity.
conclusionThe SimVis Gekko™ device demonstrated high accuracy in simulating the visual outcomes of the AcrySof® IQ Vivity™ IOL, suggesting it may be a valuable tool for preoperative patient counseling and personalized lens selection in clinical practice.
