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

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognostic factors of transnasal endoscopic optic decompression in the treatment of traumatic optic neuropathy (TON). Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 13 TON patients in The Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University and Shenzhen Eye Hospital in Shenzhen City (China) from June 2020 to April 2022. These patients had received transnasal endoscopic optic decompression, and hormonal and neurotrophic drugs were given after surgery. Visual acuity (VA) improvement was used as the criterion to judge clinical efficacy. Results: In a total of 13 patients, 13 injured eyes (12 men and 1 woman; mean age, 28.0 ± 11.8 years) received transnasal endoscopic optic decompression. After surgery, nine patients had improved VA, whereas four patients failed to show any improvement, resulting in a total effective rate of 69.2%. Of the six patients with no light perception preoperatively, three had effective results after the operation, giving an effective rate of 50.0%. Of the seven patients with residual light sensation preoperatively, six had effective results after the operation, giving an effective rate of 85.7%. Of the 10 patients operated on within 7 days after injury, seven had effective results, giving an effective rate of 70%. Of the three patients injured and operated on after 7 days, two had effective results, giving an effective rate of 66.7%. Conclusion: Transnasal endoscopic optic nerve decompression is an effective treatment method for TON. The presence of residual light perception and the timing of surgery within 7 days are crucial to the prognosis.
