Posterior sub-Tenon triamcinolone injection in the treatment of postoperative cystoid macular edema secondary to pars plana vitrectomy.
Article in Indian journal of ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of posterior sub-Tenon triamcinolone (PSTA) in chronic postoperative cystoid macular edema (PCME) after pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Methods: Consecutive 22 patients who developed chronic PCME after PPV and underwent PSTA treatment were included in this retrospective study. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central macular thickness (CMT) were measured pre injection and post injection at one month, three months, six months, and at last visit. The patients were divided into three groups according to the injection response status: complete, partial, and resistant. Results: The mean follow-up period was 26.4 ± 16.2 months after PSTA. According to pre-injection values, there was a significant improvement in the values of BCVA and CMT at the first, third, and sixth months and at the last examination (P < 0.05). In the final examination, PCME recovered completely in 12 patients, partially in 8 patients, and resistance was observed in 2 patients. Conclusion: Posterior sub-Tenon triamcinolone seems to be effective in chronic PCME following PPV.
