Successful management of persistent macular hole after macular hole surgery with intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide: A case report.
Article in Indian journal of 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
We present a case of persistent macular hole (MH) having an apical diameter of 140 microns and a basal diameter of 530 microns following a combined phacoemulsification and MH surgery. Considering post-operative cystoid macular edema (CME) as the possible reason for the failure of the initial surgery, a trial of IVTA was given. The synergistic effect of mechanical plugging of the hole by TA, coupled with resolution of cystoid changes and falling back of the macular hole resulted in the successful closure of the persistent macular hole with improvement in vision from 20/250 to 20/63.
