Recurrent retinal detachment after diabetic vitrectomy.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2020. 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 the characteristics of recurrent retinal detachment (RD) after diabetic vitrectomy (DV).
methodsConsecutive cases underwent vitrectomy for recurrent RD after DV was collected and separated into the following four groups for analysis: rhegmatogenous RD (RRD), pure tractional RD (Proliferative Subgroup 1), combined RD with proliferative tissue within the equator (Proliferative Subgroup 2), and combined RD with both posterior and peripheral proliferations (Proliferative Subgroup 3).
resultsOf the 41 cases enrolled, retinal reattachment was achieved in 73.2%. Over all, visual acuity was statistically better after operation (p = 0.001). All cases in the RRD group (four cases) had reattachment and a better final vision (p = 0.008). In the proliferative subgroups, those with pure tractional RD (Subgroup 1, seven cases) had the best visual acuity at the time of recurrent RD (p = 0.002). Subgroups 2 and 3 showed statistically significant better final visual acuity (p = 0.045 and 0.019, respectively). Poor preoperative vision (p = 0.001), non-attachment (p = 0.004), and neovascular glaucoma (p = 0.001) were associated with poor prognosis.
conclusionsVisual acuity may improve after operation for recurrent RD after diabetic vitrectomy. Visual prognosis was better in cases with pure RRD. In the proliferative subgroups, vision was impaired by the development of neovascular glaucoma and retinal non-attachment.
