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

Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of amniotic membrane transplantation combined with the closure of the tenon capsule and bulbar conjunctival space. Methods: This study retrospectively included 100 patients with primary pterygium who received closed bulbar conjunctiva and tenon capsule space combined with amniotic membrane transplantation in our hospital from January 2020 to June 2021 as the experimental group and 100 patients with routine treatment in the same period as the control group. The postoperative efficacy evaluation and postoperative complications of the two groups were compared, so as to comprehensively evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this method. Results: The results showed that the postoperative complications of the two groups were significantly improved by Fisher's exact test ( Conclusions: Amniotic membrane transplantation combined with the closure of the tenon capsule and bulbar conjunctival space is safer than conventional surgery in the treatment of primary pterygium. It has a shorter recovery time, higher safety, and a positive curative effect. It can be considered to popularize this operation in clinic.
