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

The ideal timing of surgery in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment has been discussed for decades. The study situation has improved in recent years so that recommendations can now be made. When the macula is detached, surgical treatment of the retinal detachment should be undertaken within a few days. When the macula is still attached, the near fovea and bullous superotemporal detachment should be classified as an emergency. When planning the operation environmental factors must also be considered, meaning that the performance of the intervention by an experienced surgical team is usually more important for the final result than the retinal condition alone. Influencing factors are discussed in this article and recommendations for dealing with these emergency patients are discussed.
