Macular vascularisation changes analysed using OCT angiography after successful rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair.

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
aimTo analyse the macular vascularisation changes analysed using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) after successful rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair by comparing gas
methodsThis retrospective data collection included 77 eyes with RRD that underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and gas or silicone oil tamponade. We performed an OCTA during the postoperative control between 6 and 24mo after the last surgery and evaluated the main parameters measured by OCTA: foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and parafoveolar vascular density (PVD) in the superficial capillary plexus. The patients were divided into four groups: RRD with macular involvement treated with gas tamponade, RRD without macular involvement treated with gas tamponade, RRD with macular involvement treated with silicone oil tamponade and RRD without macular involvement treated with silicone oil tamponade. A one-way ANOVA test combined with post hoc Bonferroni corrections compared FAZ sizes and PVD in all four groups.
resultsThe FAZ size was statistically significantly larger in eyes with RRD involving the macula than in those not involving it (
conclusionDespite the known risks associated with silicone oil, our findings suggest that the type of tamponade used during PPV to treat an RRD has no significant effect on the future integrity of the PVD or the size of the FAZ in the superficial capillary plexus as measured by OCTA.
