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

introductionVitrectomy combined with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, flap or tamponade is widely used in the treatment of macular diseases, such as macular hole (MH) and high myopia macular hole retinal detachment (HMMHRD). However, movement of the ILM to a suitable position to prevent displacement is a difficult operation. Improving visual function after surgery remains controversial. Compared with ILM, the thicker and more flexible lens capsule is easy to obtain and operate. Previous studies have confirmed the effectiveness of lens capsule flap in the treatment of MH. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vitrectomy combined with lens capsule flap transplantation in the treatment of HMMHRD. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This single-centre, single-blind, prospective, randomised clinical trial will include 54 patients with HMMHRD who will first undergo phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation and then vitrectomy combined with lens capsule flap transplantation (experimental group) or ILM tamponade (control group). Study participants will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to experimental and control groups. Follow-up will be conducted 1, 3 and 7 days and 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery in both groups. Necessary examinations will be performed at each follow-up visit. Measurement outcomes include postoperative situation of macular hole closure, best-corrected visual acuity, macular retinal function and macular retinal sensitivity. The primary outcome is type I closure rate of MH 6 months after operation. Intergroup comparisons of the proportions of patients with type I closure of MH will be performed with Fisher's exact test. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Full ethics approval for this study was obtained from the Ethics Committee of Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Shanghai, China. The outcomes of the trial will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and at scientific conferences. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR2200057836.
