Relationship between renal function and prognosis of Chinese proliferative diabetic retinopathy patients undergoing the first vitrectomy: protocol for a prospective cohort study.
Article in BMJ open, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionChina has the largest number of adults with diabetes aged 20-79 years (116.4 million) in 2019. Due to the socioeconomic condition or a lack of awareness of diabetic complications, many adults with diabetes have proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) or renal function impairment at their first visit to the clinic for a sudden loss of vision, and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is required for their treatment. Risk factors for the outcomes and complications of PPV surgery in PDR patients have been widely explored in many epidemiological studies and clinical trials. However, few prospective studies have analysed the association between renal function and surgical outcomes in PDR. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a single-centre, prospective cohort study of PDR patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have definite indications for PPV surgery with or without renal function impairment. We will consecutively enrol PDR patients who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria from November 2020 to December 2023. Each participant will be followed up for at least 6 months after surgery. Clinical data from medical records and vitreous fluid will be collected.Demographic characteristics and study outcomes will be summarised using descriptive statistics. The variation will be described and evaluated using the χ² test or Kruskal-Wallis test. Generalise additive mixed models will be used to explore the association between the renal profile and surgical outcomes including BCVA, and retinal and choroidal microvasculature/microstructure. Multivariate ordinal regression analysis will be used to detect the independent association between renal profile and BCVA changes, and smooth curve fitting will be employed to briefly present the tendency. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The trial has received ethical approval from the West China Hospital of Sichuan University. Results of this trial will be disseminated through publication in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at local and international meetings. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR2000039698.
