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

A 70-year-old woman presented with sudden decrease of vision 2 months following a successful vitrectomy with inverted internal limiting membrane flap for a full thickness macular hole. Serial review of fundus pictures and optical coherence tomography scans revealed a focal retinal pigment epithelial disruption at the site of the macular hole after surgery and a choroidal neovascular membrane arising from the same. This report describes the possible role of the surgical technique in causation of the membrane and discusses modifications to avoid the same.
