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

purposeThe interaction between the peripheral vitreous and retina is closely associated with the pathogenesis of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). This study was conducted to examine the peripheral vitreous and retina in patients with RRD using intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT).

methodsThis retrospective study included 50 eyes of 50 patients (mean age 59.42 ± 10.80 years) that underwent vitrectomy using iOCT for treating RRD at the Yamagata University Hospital between September 2015 and September 2016. Each patient underwent 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy that was performed by a single surgeon. During vitreous shaving with ocular indentation, the iOCT findings of the peripheral vitreous and retina were recorded and analyzed postoperatively.

resultsIn all patients, iOCT was able to detect the peripheral retina and vitreous around the vitreous base. Peripheral cystoid degeneration was detected on the peripheral retina of 27 eyes (54%). Furthermore, cystoid degeneration was detected around the retinal tear (5 patients), at the detached retinal area (8 patients), and at the attached retinal area (14 patients).

conclusioniOCT enabled the evaluation of peripheral cystoid degeneration in patients with RRD. Cystoid degeneration might be associated with the pathogenesis of RRD.
