Changes in circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness after vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The study aimed to evaluate the long-term changes in circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness after vitrectomy for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair. A total of 33 eyes of 33 patients were enrolled. By using optical coherence tomography, the circumpapillary RNFL thickness was measured before surgery and 1, 3, 6 months and 1, 2, 3 years after surgery and compared with the preoperative value. The effect of duration, location, and extent of RRD on RNFL thickness change was evaluated. There was a significant increase of circumpapillary RNFL thickness at the 1-month, 3-month [except in the nasal superior sector (P = 0.627)], and only in the nasal inferior sector at 6-month (P = 0.010) follow-up compared with the baseline value (all Ps < 0.05). No significant differences were observed 1, 2, and 3 years after the surgery (P > 0.05). The duration, location, and extent of detachment did not reveal significant correlations with RNFL parameters (P > 0.05). Circumpapillary RNFL thickness in eyes with RRD after vitrectomy demonstrated a transient increase during the early postoperative period. This increase was not associated with duration, location, and extent of RRD. At 3 years following surgery, no RNFL thinning or thickening was observed.
