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
Purpose: Myopic choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and myopic traction maculopathy are major complications of pathologic myopia, and myopic foveoschisis (MF) is one of several symptoms that can be included under the general term "myopic traction maculopathy"; however, only a few cases will have MF around the myopic CNV. We report three cases with MF around myopic CNV that followed different clinical courses observed using swept-source optical coherence tomography. Observations: Case 1 was a 69-year-old woman with an axial length of 29.71 mm, myopic CNV, and MF in the left eye. One month after intravitreal injection of ranibizumab (IVR), a macular retinal detachment (RD) expanded. Vitrectomy and gas tamponade were performed during month 2; the macular RD and MF resolved gradually thereafter. Case 2 was a 54-year-old man with an axial length of 30.59 mm, myopic CNV, and MF in the right eye; after IVR, a macular RD developed and gradually expanded until month 4; the RD and MF resolved spontaneously and resolved during month 8. Case 3 was a 66-year-old woman with an axial length of 28.63 mm, myopic CNV, and MF in the left eye. A macular RD expanded 1 month after a previous vitrectomy for MF; after intravitreal injection of aflibercept, the macular RD and MF resolved gradually in month 12. In all cases, the CNV was accompanied by subretinal fluid, and two of the three cases had outer lamellar holes. Conclusion and Importance: The MF around the myopic CNV may lead to exacerbated MF and RD during follow-up, and the subretinal fluid caused by the CNV might facilitate MF progression. Since this condition is rare, further investigation of this entity is needed to determine appropriate management.
