Pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: predictors of anatomic and functional success.
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 2 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
purposeThis study describes presenting clinical features and surgical techniques associated with successful repair of pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
methodsThis is a retrospective case series which involved 242 cases younger than 18 years with new-onset RRD with descriptive statistics for the full group. Further exclusion established 168 cases that underwent surgery with minimum 3-month follow-up. Comparison of features associated with successful outcomes was analyzed using Chi-squared tests, logistic regression and univariate generalized equation models.
resultsWe measured proportion of patients with BCVA ≤ 1.0 logMAR and/or an increase in final BCVA of 0.3 logMAR with respect to baseline and complete reattachment at final visit; 104 eyes (62%) achieved total reattachment, and 91 eyes (54%) achieved visual success. Absence of macular involvement, subtotal RRD and older age group (13-18) were associated with both success measures. There were higher visual and anatomic success rates with primary scleral buckling (SB, 66% and 79%; OR 9.26 and 11.09) and combined SB plus pars plana vitrectomy (PPV, 54% and 58%; OR 5.67 and 3.94) compared with PPV alone (26% and 17%).
conclusionA majority of patients achieved anatomical success with repair. Trauma and myopia were the most common etiologic associations, with myopic cases having better outcomes. Success was more likely in patients with subtotal RRD or uninvolved macula at presentation; previous intraocular surgery was a risk factor for failure. Younger patients had a higher likelihood of worse outcomes. Initial PPV showed a lower rate of success than either SB or combined SB/PPV.
