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

purposeThis retrospective study analyzed the results of 23G vitrectomy for the treatment of intraocular hemorrhage in patients with Terson syndrome. The pathogenesis of Terson syndrome and the timing of vitrectomy are discussed.

methodsEight eyes of eight patients were included in the study. Intrasurgical images were acquired, and membranes peeled off during surgery were subjected to pathological staining. Postoperative examination included visual acuity, intraocular pressure, funduscopy, and optical coherence tomography angiography.

resultsThe course of visual impairment in the patients ranged from < 1 to 5 months; visual acuity ranged from light perception to 20/1000. Surgeries in the eight patients were all successful, and no severe complications were observed. Visual acuity improved in each operative eye. Pathological staining revealed only fibrous connective tissue, and no nerve fibers in the membranes peeled off during surgery. Optical coherence tomography angiography revealed no changes in blood vessel density in the inner layer of the retina of the operative eye compared with the non-operative eye in each patient.

conclusionsTimely surgical intervention is necessary for the treatment of intraocular hemorrhage in patients with Terson syndrome. Clinical findings support the theory that intraocular blood results from stasis or rupture of retinal superficial peripapillary vessels caused by elevated intracranial pressure.
