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: To validate a novel VISULYZE-based nomogram for high myopia in small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) surgery. Methods: This prospective, nonrandomized controlled trial included 118 eyes of 71 high-myopia patients treated with SMILE using a VisuMax 500-kHz femtosecond laser. High myopia was defined as a spherical equivalent refraction ≤ -6.00 D. Treated eyes were divided into two groups, according to different nomograms received: the conventional surgeon-adjusted nomogram group ( Results: Preop-SE was -6.58 ± 0.50 D in the conventional group and -6.79 ± 0.61 D in the VISULYZE group. At 3 months postoperatively, the SE in the conventional group and the VISULYZE group was -0.16 ± 0.34 D and 0.05 ± 0.40 D ( Conclusions: The VISULYZE-based nomogram demonstrated comparable safety to the conventional nomogram while achieving significantly superior efficacy and predictability. Additionally, it provided a supportive condition for reducing RMS HOAs after SMILE compared to the conventional approach.
