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

Purpose: To report a rare case of Aicardi syndrome presenting with concurrent peripheral retina nonperfusion with 360-degree neovascularization in the right eye and stalk tissue with a peripapillary fibrovascular membrane and tractional retinal detachment (TRD) in the left eye. Observations: A one-month-old girl was referred for an ophthalmic evaluation to confirm the diagnosis of Aicardi syndrome due to abnormal brain magnetic resonance imaging. A 360-degree circumferential peripheral avascular retina with extensive neovascularization was present in the right eye. Stalk tissue with fibrovascular proliferation causing TRD was found in the left fundus. The retina of the right eye became quiescent after completing peripheral laser photocoagulation. The detached retina in the left eye was flattened, and the peripapillary chorioretinal lacunae became visible one year after surgical removal of the traction. In addition, the axial length growth of the left eye regained. Conclusion and importance: This is a rare case of Aicardi syndrome with concurrent peripapillary fibrovascular traction in one eye and peripheral retina nonperfusion in the other eye. Surgical intervention is vital not only for removing the traction and flattening the retina but also for promoting continual growth of the eyeball.
