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

purposeTo report 4 cases undergoing 25-gauge endoscopic vitrectomy for the treatment of proliferative vitreoretinopathy with severe corneal opacity in which a transpupillary view of the fundus was not possible. STUDY

designA retrospective interventional case series.

methodsThe main outcomes measured were postoperative anatomic status of the retina and subjective improvement of vision.

resultsPostoperative reattachment of the retina and subjective improvement of vision were achieved in all 4 eyes.

conclusionTwenty five-gauge endoscopic vitrectomy provides a clear view making it possible conduct pars plana vitrectomy in order to reattach the retina in cases of proliferative vitreoretinopathy with severe corneal opacity.
