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
purposeComplicated retinal re-detachment with inferior proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) remains a challenge. This study's aim was to compare vitrectomy with conventional silicon oil (CSO) combined with an encircling band (EB) and vitrectomy with heavy silicon oil (HSO) alone to treat retinal re-detachment through inferior PVR, where standard procedures have already failed.
methodsA retrospective analysis was done on patients with inferior complex re-detachment with secondary PVR after primary surgery, who received pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with CSO combined with EB (group 1) or PPV alone with HSO (group 2) between December 2006 and August 2017. The primary endpoint was retinal reattachment, and the secondary endpoint was visual acuity (VA) change and complications in both groups.
resultsThis study included 119 eyes. Total single surgery anatomical success (SSAS) was 64%, with 80% (52/65) achieved in group 1 and 44.5% (24/54) in group 2 (p < 0.0001). The total final anatomical success (FAS) rate was 79% (94/119). In group 1, FAS was 91% (59/65) compared with 65% (35/54) in group 2 (p = 0.003). The pretreatment VA of group 1 had a median of 1.4 logMAR (95% CI 0.3-1.8), and group 2 showed a median of 1.4 logMAR (95% CI 0.2-1.8). The post-treatment decrease in group 1 was a median equal to - 0.6 versus - 0.1 for group 2 (p = 0.0001). Serious complications were similar in both groups.
conclusionFor complicated retinal re-detachment through inferior PVR, the combination of PPV with EB may lead to better anatomical (SSAS, FAS) and functional success compared with PPV alone with HSO.
