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

With the recent advent of high-resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT), atypical epiretinal tissue (AET), also known as epiretinal proliferation, has been frequently noted in various pathologies. AET presents as premacular tissue with homogenous medium reflectivity over the internal limiting membrane on OCT. Although AET is most frequently associated with a lamellar hole (LH), some cases of macular hole (MH) also accompany AET at the edge of the hole. MH with AET has been reported to have worse clinical and surgical outcomes than MH without AET. The imaging and histopathological findings of AET imply that the development of MH with AET may not have been driven by vitreofoveal traction. Instead, MH with AET might have evolved from LH with AET. This mini-review encompassed relevant studies on MH with AET published to date and explained the clinical, prognostic, and pathogenic significance of AET in MH in detail.
