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

Purpose: This report describes a case of bilateral macular holes (MHs) in adult vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD). Methods: A retrospective case report of a patient with AVMD and sequential onset of bilateral MHs is presented. Results: Bilateral MHs were observed after vitreomacular traction was identified on optical coherence tomography. Holes in both eyes were repaired with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with C Conclusions: MHs in AVMD may be preceded by vitreomacular traction. Surgical repair with PPV and gas tamponade was successful. Retinal and retinal pigment epithelium atrophy developed postoperatively, but the patient's vision still improved.
