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

purposeTo study the anatomical and functional outcomes of trans-conjunctival 23G or 25G cannula-guided modified posterior passive drainage of post-operative suprachoroidal hemorrhage (SCH).

methodsA retrospective study was done on 15 eyes in the last nine years. Vitrectomy with perfluorocarbon liquid injection to push SCH from inside along with 23G or 25G cannula-guided passive drainage of SCH was performed by making multiple sutureless posterior sclerotomies at 10-15 mm behind the limbus. Postoperatively, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), and posterior segment findings were compared from pre-operative findings.

resultsMean age at presentation was 64.93 ± 7.62 years. Complete resolution of SCH with attached retina was achieved in 60% (9/15) of cases. Mean pre-operative BCVA of Log MAR 2.82 ± 0.21 improved to mean post-operative BCVA Log MAR 1.04 ± 0.53 (P < 0.001). Mean pre-operative IOP of 27.87 ± 8.67 mmHg improved significantly to post-operative IOP of 10.2 ± 5.16 mmHg (P < 0.001). Silicone oil removal was possible in 11/15 (73.33%) cases.

conclusionPosterior passive drainage of post-operative SCH by multiple sclerotomies using 23G or 25G cannulas can salvage these eyes with both anatomical and functional recovery.
