Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThis study aims to describe chandelier assisted scleral buckle (CSB) using 3D visualizing system in phakic uncomplicated Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment (RRD).
methodsThis technique was performed in 6 eyes of 6 patients with primary rhegmatogenous RD who underwent encircling circumferential scleral buckling with scleral tunnels. Heads up display 3D system was used for visualization and localization of the breaks, and Chandelier Endoillumination was used as a light source was inserted through a 27 G needle sclerotomy 3.5mm from the limbus. A partial-thickness scleral "belt-loop" tunnels in the four quadrants were created using crescent knife angle beveled (2.3 mm in width) to facilitate the smooth passage of the band a 240-silicone band as encircling circumferential buckle. Cryopexy was performed and the incision was closed with cautery or absorbable sutures.
resultsPrimary attachment success of 5 out of 6 and overall success was 100%. No intraoperative or postoperative complications observed although fellows in training performed half the procedures.
conclusionsHeads up Sutureless Chandelier assisted Scleral Buckle can achieve excellent anatomical success while improving ergonomics and training. Furthermore, it is a safe procedure with less risk of complications and retinal phototoxicity.
