Rapid Morphological Restoration of Normal Foveal Contour After Spontaneous Epiretinal Membrane Separation from Retina in Eye with Macular Pseudohole: A Case Report.

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
purposeThis study aims to report a case of idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) spontaneously separated from the retinal surface even in eyes with a macular pseudohole, which was immediately followed by resolution of visual deterioration and morphological findings. CASE REPORT: A 66-year-old man presented with visual deterioration and metamorphopsia in the right eye. An ERM with a macular pseudohole in the right eye was shown by fundus examinations and optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. We intended to perform vitrectomy to remove the ERM, but within 2 months after the initial visit, the ERM spontaneously separated from the retina. Fundus photograph showed that the ERM and the macular pseudohole were absent and the fundus looked almost normal, and OCT image showed no ERM and an almost normal appearance of the retina without remaining undulations. After the ERM separation, his vision improved to 20/15.
conclusionCases with an ERM-associated macular pseudohole should be carefully monitored for the possibility of a spontaneous separation of the ERM from the retina.
