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

backgroundTo describe the main retinal iatrogenic traumas possibly related to ophthalmic surgery and the precautions to be adopted to avoid them.

methodsThe article reviews the main peer-reviewed literature concerning retinal injuries caused by surgically related maneuvers. Safety measures alleged to inhibit any possible iatrogenic damage are also evaluated.

resultsPhotochemical damage of the retina, retinal complications after strabismus surgery, retinal complications related to local anesthesia for ophthalmic surgery, retinal damage during cataract surgery and retinal damage during vitreoretinal surgery are the most common iatrogenic retinal injuries. Their incidence is related to risk factors peculiar to each condition.

conclusionsOphthalmic surgeons are aware that there are a number of circumstances in which several undesirable retinal iatrogenic injuries might occur, sometimes with serious consequences. This is why surgeons should take every precaution at each surgical step to avoid any possible retinal iatrogenic damage.
