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

purposeTo evaluate the long-term changes in retinochoroidal structure and perfusion status in highly myopic eyes following ICL V4c implantation, using ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (UWF-SS-OCTA) combined with a three-dimensional modelling algorithm.

designProspective cohort study. SUBJECTS: Sixty-six highly myopic patients (132 eyes) underwent ICL V4c implantation surgery and completed one year of follow-up.

methodsRetinal and choroidal parameters, including retinal thickness (RT), capillary plexus density, foveal avascular zone (FAZ), retinal curvature, choroidal thickness (CT), and three-dimensional choroidal vascularity index (3D-CVI), were measured preoperatively and at multiple postoperative time points using UWF-SS-OCTA integrated with advanced 3D analytic techniques. Repeated measures mixed-effects models were applied to compare the pre- and postoperative parameters and test the correlations between parameters.

resultsThe surgical outcomes are satisfactory with a stable safety profile and no major complications. RT and retinal vascular density exhibited transient changes in one month postoperatively, and gradually recovered (p < 0.05). Choroidal parameters, including CT and 3D-CVI, demonstrated a progressive and sustained postoperative increase across the 1-year follow-up, with the most pronounced changes observed in the foveal and perifoveal zones (p < 0.001). Factors of surgical duration and axial length showed significant correlation to the retinochoroidal responses (p < 0.05).

conclusionOur analysis based on UWF-SS-OCTA demonstrated that ICL implantation can cause the recoverable changes of retinal structure and perfusion status, and the sustained remodeling of choroidal vascular conditions one year postoperatively in high myopia. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR2500108664, registered at the Chinese Medical Research Registry.
