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

Background: Ciliary body inner diameter (CBID) was recently reported as a new parameter for Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) sizing. This study aimed to characterize CBID in Chinese myopic adults using the novel ArcScan Insight 100 very high-frequency ultrasound biomicroscope, identify its associated ocular anatomical factors, and assess its influence on Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) size recommendations. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 107 myopic eyes of 58 Chinese adults were enrolled. Anterior segment parameters, including CBID, were measured using ArcScan Insight 100. Linear mixed-effect models (LMMs) were fitted to identify determinants of CBID while accounting for inter-eye correlation. The relative contributions of independent variables were evaluated using part Results: The mean CBID was 10.80 ± 0.48 (range 9.76 to 11.97) mm. Multivariate LMM analysis revealed that wider CBID was independently associated with younger age ( Conclusions: ArcScan Insight 100 allows direct measurement of CBID using a standardized protocol. In Chinese myopic adults, CBID was normally distributed and was mainly associated with STS. The Reinstein formula, which incorporates CBID, resulted in different ICL size recommendations for half of the eyes compared to the traditional WTW-based method. These findings demonstrate that incorporation of CBID can alter preoperative ICL size recommendations, though its direct effect on postoperative vault prediction requires future surgical validation.
