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

The management of submacular hemorrhage (SMH) necessitates rapid clearing of the bleed for optimal visual outcomes. We present a series of 3 cases with large fresh SMH (≤7 days) secondary to MNV that were treated with intravitreal injection (IVI) of brolucizumab along with SF6 gas injection. A face-down position was recommended for 5 days after the injection, with follow-up visits at regular intervals. All eyes demonstrated notable improvement in visual acuity with complete resolution of SMH lasting up to 6 months. There were no ocular or systemic side effects. Thus, IVI brolucizumab with SF6 gas injection is efficacious and safe for the management of large SMH secondary to MNV.
