Effects of internal limiting membrane peeling on anatomical and functional outcomes in macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopathy: Japan-Retinal Detachment Registry.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeTo investigate the effects of internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling on retinal attachment after a single surgery, and on postoperative visual acuity (VA) at 6 months, in eyes with macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). STUDY
designNationwide, multicenter retrospective cohort study.
methodsThe Japan-RD Registry database was used for analysis of patients who had undergone vitrectomy for macula-off RRD complicated by PVR. Multivariate analysis was performed to detect prognostic factors for retinal attachment after a single surgery and for VA at 6 months postoperatively. Retinal attachment after a single surgery or VA at 6 months postoperatively was the objective variable; ILM peeling, preoperative VA, PVR grade, age, and intraocular pressure were explanatory variables.
resultsEighty-nine eyes met the inclusion criteria; ILM peeling was performed in 25 eyes (28%). Preoperative VA was significantly associated with retinal attachment, but ILM peeling did not (odds ratios = 2.1 and 1.3, respectively; p = 0.009 and 0.67, respectively). Poor preoperative VA and younger patient age were significantly associated with poor postoperative VA, but ILM peeling was not (β-values = 0.37, -0.008, and 0.15, respectively; p < 0.001, p = 0.02, and p = 0.15, respectively.
conclusionsPreoperative VA was a risk factor associated with retinal attachment. Preoperative VA and patient age were risk factors associated with postoperative poor VA. In eyes with macula-off RRD complicated by PVR, ILM peeling did not have a clear beneficial effect on anatomical and functional outcomes, suggesting that it may be unnecessary for eyes with this condition.
