Effect of Changes in Surgical Strategies for the Treatment of Primary Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment on Functional and Anatomical Outcomes: A Retrospective Analysis of 812 Cases from the Years 2004 to 2012.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundAt the Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry at the MUV surgical method (scleral buckling, vitrectomy, combined vitrectomy/scleral buckling) and timing (daytime, nighttime) for the treatment of primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) changed continuously in the years 2004 to 2012. This study aims to evaluate changes in surgical strategies over time including their impact on functional and anatomical outcomes.
methodsRetrospective evaluation of patients operated on primary RRD between the years 2004 and 2012. Baseline demographic data, month 3 best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), surgical method, single success surgery, surgical timing, and intraoperative complications were analyzed.
resultsOverall, 812 eyes of 812 patients with a mean (±SD) age of 58.1 ± 13.3 years were included. A total of 413 (51%) patients presented with macula-on and 359 (44%) with macula-off RRD. Month 3 BCVA increased over time, both in macula-on or macula-off groups (
conclusionOur data showed that improving functional and single-success surgery outcomes in patients operated on for primary RRD. In the years 2004 to 2012, surgical techniques shifted from scleral buckling to primary vitrectomy and were increasingly scheduled during the daytime.
