Peripapillary changes after vitrectomy and silicone oil tamponade for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Article in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
purposeTo evaluate the peripapillary changes after vitrectomy and silicone oil (SO) tamponade in eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
methodsIn this study, 25-gauge vitrectomy with SO tamponade was performed in 22 eyes with RRD. The radial peripapillary capillary (RPC) vessel density (VD) and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) were assessed by optical coherence tomography angiography at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks postoperatively. The values of healthy fellow eyes were used as controls.
resultsThe global RPC VDs were significantly lower in the eyes with RRD than in fellow healthy eyes at 2 weeks (P < 0.001), and increased at 4 weeks, then decreased over time after surgery (F = 1.046, P = 0.377). The RPC VDs in the superior-hemifield were lower than those in the inferior-hemifield at 12 weeks postoperatively (t = -2.844, P = 0.010). The global RNFLTs decreased gradually after vitrectomy in the eyes with RRD (F = 1.312, P = 0.276). The RNFLTs in the superior-hemifield were thinner than those in the inferior-hemifield at 12 weeks postoperatively (t = -2.222, P = 0.037). The global, superior, and inferior RNFLTs were correlated with corresponding RPC VDs in the eyes with RRD at all time-points postoperatively (P < 0.05).
conclusionRRD resulted in the decrease of RPC VDs. The RPC VDs recovered in the early postoperative period but were still lower than the normal level. Long-term application of SO tamponade resulted in the reduction of peripapillary VDs secondary to loss of RNFLTs.
