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 evaluate the postoperative refractive prediction error (PE) and determine the factors that affect the refractive outcomes of combined pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) or silicone oil removal (SOR) with cataract surgery.
methodsThe study is a retrospective, case-series study. Totally 301 eyes of 301 patients undergoing combined PPV/SOR with cataract surgery were enrolled. Eligible individuals were separated into four groups according to their preoperative diagnoses: silicone oil-filled eyes after PPV (group 1), epiretinal membrane (group 2), macular hole (group 3), and primary retinal detachment (RD; group 4). The variables affecting postoperative refractive outcomes were analyzed, including age, gender, preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), axial length (AL), keratometry average, anterior chamber depth (ACD), intraocular tamponade, and vitreoretinal pathology. The outcome measurements include the mean refractive PE and the proportions of eyes with a PE within ±0.50 diopter (D) and ±1.00 D.
resultsFor all patients, the mean PE was -0.04±1.17 D, and 50.17% of patients (eyes) had a PE within ±0.50 D. There was a significant difference in refractive outcomes among the four groups (
conclusionRD patients have the least favorable refractive outcome. AL, vitreoretinal pathology, and ACD are strongly associated with PE in the combined surgery. These three factors affect refractive outcomes and thus can be used to predict a better postoperative refractive outcome in clinical practice.
