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

Subretinal massive hemorrhage due to exsudative age-related macular degeneration remains a challenging field for submacular surgery. While small hemorrhages can be easily displaced by various pneumatic techniques the correct strategy for massive subretinal bleeding is still under debate. This article reviews the different techniques for these severe cases and assesses the visual prognosis and potential complications. In general, invasive techniques for extraction of the neovascular membrane with or without macular translocation or retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) choroidal patch translocation have the potential to achieve visual improvement. However, the risk of severe visual loss due to subsequent complications has to be considered. Far better visual results with a significantly lower complication rate can be achieved by a 2-step strategy using rTPA-assisted dissolution of the hemorrhage and evacuation of the liquefied clot via a small retinotomy.
