Photoreceptor disruption related to persistent submacular fluid after successful scleral buckle surgery.
Article in Korean journal of ophthalmology : KJO, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeTo investigate serial changes in photoreceptor status and associated visual outcome in patients with persistent submacular fluid after successful scleral buckle surgery for macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
methodsThis was a prospective observational case series including 76 consecutive patients who underwent successful scleral buckle surgery for macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with symptom duration ≤90 days at a single tertiary hospital. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) and visual acuity examination were performed at one month and three months postoperatively and at three-month intervals until the submacular fluid disappeared. Main outcome measures were postoperative photoreceptor status on OCT and visual acuity.
resultsForty-two patients (55.3%) showed persistent submacular fluid at postoperative one month. Of 42 patients with persistent submacular fluid, three (7.1%) showed photoreceptor disruption on OCT. None of the 34 patients without persistent submacular fluid showed photoreceptor disruption. Two patients (4.8%) had progressive photoreceptor disruption, and one patient (2.4%) had early photoreceptor disruption. All three patients showed photoreceptor reappearance and limited visual restoration after absorption of submacular fluid. Final visual acuities were significantly worse in these three patients (20 / 1000, 20 / 133, and 20 / 133) compared to those of the other patients (mean, 20 / 30) with persistent submacular fluid and intact photoreceptors.
conclusionsEven after successful scleral buckle surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, photoreceptor disruption can occur related to persistent submacular fluid and may be a cause of poor visual outcome.
