A comparison of using digitally assisted vitreoretinal surgery during repair of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments to the conventional analog microscope: A prospective interventional study.
Article in International ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundTo compare outcomes and complications of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) using a three-dimensional heads-up visualisation system (digitally assisted vitreoretinal system, DAVS) versus conventional analog microscope (CAM) in primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
methodsThis prospective interventional institutional study evaluated 60 eyes of 60 subjects with primary RRD undergoing PPV between September 2017 and February 2018. Subjects were randomly put into DAVS and CAM group and pre-operative ocular characteristics and final outcomes recorded at each visit. All subjects were followed up for a duration of 6 months. Main outcome measures recorded were post-operative retinal status, visual acuity (VA), intraocular pressure (IOP) and surgical complications.
resultsOverall final retinal attachment at 6 months was 91.7% (90% in DAVS eyes and 93.3% in CAM eyes; p = 0.999). Final VA improved significantly from baseline in both groups (p < 0.001). Overall, VA improved to > = 20/40 in 18.3% eyes (6 DAVS, 5 CAM). Median duration of silicone oil endotamponade was 3.5 months (3.5 months in DAVS, 3 months in CAM). Redetachment rate in the series was 25% (20% in DAVS, 30% in CAM). Post-operative proliferative vitreoretinopathy grade C and more was present in 15% of eyes (10% in DAVS, 20% in CAM). Average duration of surgery was 37 ± 6.2 min in DAVS group and 39.8 ± 6.6 min in CAM group (p = 0.09). All steps of vitrectomy could be performed with relative ease and comfort with the DAVS platform.
conclusionAnatomical and functional outcomes of RRD were favourable with DAVS and comparable to that with conventional microscope surgery.
