The results of 25-gauge vitreoretinal surgery for optic disc pit-associated maculopathy: a report of three cases and mini-review of the literature.
Review in International ophthalmology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeWe report the outcomes of three consecutive patients with optic disc pit-associated maculopathy who were treated with 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, fluid-air exchange, barrage endolaser, and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas tamponade. CASE REPORT: Patients with optic disc pit-associated maculopathy were treated with 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy followed by ILM peeling, fluid-air exchange, barrage endolaser, and gas tamponade with 20 % SF6. All patients were asked to maintain a facedown position for 3 days postoperatively. This technique resulted in complete retinal reattachment after 25-gauge vitrectomy, ILM peeling, fluid-air exchange, barrage endolaser, and 20 % SF6 gas injection. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improved in all three patients and successful anatomical results were achieved. There wasn't any macular detachment in all cases at 20th week follow-up.
conclusionsOur outcomes suggest that 25-gauge vitrectomy with ILM peeling, fluid-air exchange, barrage endolaser, and SF6 gas tamponade appears to be an effective treatment option for optic disc pit-associated maculopathy.
