Re-Vitrectomy versus Combined Re-Vitrectomy with Scleral Buckling for Pediatric Recurrent Retinal Detachment.

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
Purpose: To compare re-vitrectomy versus combined re-vitrectomy with scleral buckling (SB) for pediatric recurrent rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) following failed primary pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Methods: This was a retrospective, comparative case series of pediatric patients (under 18 years) who underwent secondary RRD procedures after failed primary PPV. Patients were divided into the re-vitrectomy and the combined re-vitrectomy with SB groups. The primary outcome was the anatomical success rate for each procedure. The secondary outcomes were changes in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and postoperative complications. Results: In the re-vitrectomy group (30 eyes), the final anatomical success rate was 83.3% (25/30) after a mean follow-up of 21.7 + 6.9 months. The final anatomical success rate in the combined re-vitrectomy/SB group (23 eyes) was 73.9% (17/23) after a mean follow-up of 26.5 + 7.7 months. There was no statistically significant difference in the final anatomical success rate ( Conclusion: Re-vitrectomy alone provides similar anatomical and functional outcomes to combined re-vitrectomy/SB for pediatric recurrent RRD after failed primary PPV.
