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 aimed to analyse photic phenomena and quality of vision in cataract patients implanted with a biconvex aspheric toric monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) with a double C-loop haptic design. Methods: A total of 116 patients (232 eyes) with corneal astigmatism (≥0.75D) were implanted bilaterally with the PODEYE toric IOL. Postoperative evaluation at 11-13 months post-surgery included binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), and posterior capsule opacification (PCO) grading. Specifically, photic phenomena (halo and glare) and quality of vision (QoV) were assessed at the 4-6 months postoperative visit using a simulator and a validated patient-reported outcomes questionnaire. Results: Mean binocular UDVA and CDVA were 0.01±0.08 logMAR and -0.03±0.08 logMAR, respectively. Eleven eyes from our cohort of eyes showed mild PCO (4.8%). The size and intensity of halos decreased compared to the preoperative visit, from 29.63±22.52 to 16.27±14.51, and from 42.47±24.62 to 29.44±24.51, respectively. A similar trend was found for glare (from 28.38±19.49 to 11.46±13.91, and from 33.17±23.30 to 22.61±19.36, respectively). The mean Rasch Score analysis showed different improvements of quality of vision from preoperative to 4-6 months postoperatively for frequency (-26.19±24.65), severity (-22.82±21.32) and bothersomeness (-26.47±26.05). Conclusion: Bilateral implantation of the PODEYE toric IOL in cataract patients with corneal astigmatism provides good quality of vision. Halo and glare induced by this lens are less intense than those induced by cataracts, thus leading to a subjective reduction in these visual disturbances after surgery.
