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

The initial surgery is one of the most important factors influencing the anatomic and functional outcome of retinal detachment surgery. With the continual modifications in vitrectomy techniques, the strategy in primary vitrectomy surgery is also changing. Recent developments are the use of 25- and 23-gauge trocar systems and new surgical techniques without the use of perfluorcarbons or gas or silicone oil tamponade. In addition, heavy silicone oils are now entering routine clinical use, especially for proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) redetachments of the lower fundus periphery. Regarding adjunct pharmacologic therapy, daunorubicin and 5-fluorouracil/low molecular weight heparin have been found to improve the results of patients with PVR or at risk for PVR.
