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

Retinal detachment caused by severe ocular trauma is a type of refractory vitreoretinal disease. Current treatment methods include vitrectomy combined with silicone oil tamponade. However, long-term use of silicone oil tamponade has various complications, including a risk of silicone oil dependence that eventually leads to eyeball atrophy and enucleation. Foldable capsular vitreous bodies (FCVBs) offer a good solution for these problems. However, FCVBs have not been used in large-scale clinical applications and few cases have been reported in the published literature. The main use of FCVBs, based on current evidence, is in the treatment of the relatively few (but important) patients whose eyes have no visual potential; the aim of treatment in these patients is globe preservation, rather than restoration of vision. Here, we describe two patients who underwent FCVB implantation. The findings in these patients indicated that FCVBs can effectively support the vitreous cavity and detached retina. FCVB implantation may thus offer a safe and effective method for treatment of severe retinal detachment, avoiding the inconvenience caused by silicone oil dependence and enucleation. To confirm its long-term usefulness in clinical applications, many additional case reports are needed.
