Efficacy of scleral imbrication on all quadrants in enucleated pig eyes.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 changes in axial length (AL) and corneal astigmatism induced by scleral imbrication on all quadrants in pig eyes. STUDY
designExperimental study
methodsWe produced scleral imbrications either on all quadrants or on 2 consecutive quadrants of 5 enucleated pig eyes. Scleral imbrications 8 mm wide were made at 8 mm from the limbus on each quadrant. We determined the AL using an electronic caliper and the corneal astigmatism using a keratometer before and after the 2 types of scleral imbrications and compared the changes in ocular AL and corneal astigmatism induced by the 2 surgical procedures.
resultsThe AL reduction after the scleral imbrication on all quadrants (3.96 ± 0.56 mm) was larger than that on 2 quadrants (2.39 ± 0.41 mm) (P = .001). The change in corneal astigmatism induced by imbrication on all quadrants (2.98 ± 1.96 D) was less than that on 2 quadrants (5.95 ± 2.04 D) (P < .029).
conclusionsScleral imbrication on all quadrants induced a shorter AL and less corneal astigmatism than did a standard scleral imbrication on 2 quadrants. Therefore, the former could be a more effective operation for retinal disorders associated with high myopia, including macular hole retinal detachment and myopic foveoschisis.
