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

purposeTo investigate the need of rebubbling for small graft detachments after Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK).

methodsIn this retrospective study we evaluated 111 eyes from 111 patients that showed graft detachment after DMEK surgery and have achieved graft adherence by injection of air or 20% sulfur hexafluoride (SF

resultsBCVA increased in the rebubbling group and the control group, the difference being 0.22 logMAR,

conclusionCompared to spontaneous graft adherence, a rebubbling shows no beneficial effect on the clinical outcome for small detached DMEK grafts. Rebubbling does not decrease postoperative endothelial cell density.
