The Influence of Surgical Timing on Clinical Outcomes in Primary Extramacular Retinal Detachment in a Tertiary Referral Center.
Article in Journal of vitreoretinal diseases. 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
Purpose: This article reports the influence of timing on the clinical outcomes in primary extramacular rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) at a tertiary referral center. Methods: A retrospective case series was conducted of all patients presenting between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2016, with primary extramacular RRD. Retinal detachments with grade C proliferative vitreoretinopathy, combined tractional and RRD, eyes with inflammatory disease, and prior retinal surgery were excluded. The main outcome measures were single-operation anatomic success (SOAS), final anatomic success, and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Results: There were 202 eyes of 198 patients with an average of 22 months' follow-up (range, 6-47 months). Eyes were operated on an average of 1.1 days after initial presentation. At last clinical examination, SOAS had been achieved in 174 (86%) eyes, final anatomic success in 200 (99%) eyes, and average postoperative logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) BCVA was 0.18 (Snellen equivalent, 20/30; SD, 0.36). In those treated the day of presentation, average postoperative logMAR BCVA was 0.18 (Snellen, 20/31) in comparison to 0.18 (Snellen, 20/30) in those treated the day after presentation and 0.14 (Snellen, 20/28) in those treated after 2 days or more ( Conclusions: Regarding timing of surgery, SOAS and BCVA outcomes in primary extramacular RRDs were favorable with an urgent and semiurgent approach to repair. There was no difference in visual and anatomic outcomes between patients who were operated on the day of presentation and those treated a short time later when clinical decisions were made by the treating surgeon on a case-by-case basis.
