Surgical treatment of diabetic retinopathy.
Review in Graefe's archive for clinical and experimental ophthalmology = Albrecht von Graefes Archiv fur klinische und experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Several complications of advanced diabetic retinopathy can be treated surgically. Vitrectomy can clear media opacities, relieve traction on the retina, and makes adequate laser treatment of the retina possible. Removal of premacular vitreous may also improve diabetic macular edema. Instrumentation, understanding of the pathophysiology, surgical skills as well as supplementary pharmacotherapy have improved surgical results. Indications and timing for surgery have considerable changed in the past decades threshold for surgery has been continuously lowered, as vitrectomy became safer. The primary disease of the retinal microvasculature with capillary occlusion and retinal ischemia is still the limiting factor, responsible for disappointing functional results in anatomically successfully operated eyes.
