Multimodal Assessment of the Prognostic Role of Ectopic Inner Foveal Layers on Epiretinal Membrane Surgery.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. 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
backgroundTo perform a multimodal assessment of the ectopic inner foveal layers' (EIFL) prognostic role on idiopathic epiretinal membrane (ERM) surgery.
methodsWe retrospectively followed-up for 12 months 27 patients who underwent ERM surgery and stratified them based on EIFL presence (group 1) or absence (group 2) at baseline. Central Retinal Thickness (CRT) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were compared pre- and post-operatively at 1, 4 and 12 months, whereas fixation stability (FS), macular sensitivity (MS) and multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) responses were confronted at baseline and 12 months.
resultsIn group 1, BCVA improved at 4 and 12 months (MD = 0.14 (SE = 0.04); MD = 0.13 (SE = 0.05), respectively) as well as in group 2 (MD = 0.31 (SE = 0.07); MD = 0.41 (SE = 0.08), respectively). CRT did not change in group 1, whereas it decreased in group 2 at 4 and 12 months (MD = -73.13; SE = 23.56; MD = -76.20; SE = 23.56). MS showed no changes in both groups after surgery. FS did not change in group 1, whereas group 2 improved FS 2° (+8.91 ± 13.97) and FS 4° (+4.33 ± 3.84). MfERG P1 wave did not change in group 1, while in group 2 αP1-2, αP1-3 and αP1-4 improved postoperatively (27.97 ± 27.62; 12.51 ± 17.36; 10.49 ± 17.19, respectively).
conclusionsMultimodal assessment confirmed that EIFL negatively affected ERM surgery outcomes.
