Role of deferred retinal laser following intravitreal injection of bevacizumab in treatment of severe retinopathy of prematurity.

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
purposeThe purpose is to determine the advantages and role of supplemental deferred retinal laser treatment following intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) monotherapy in cases of severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) requiring treatment. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis is a retrospective study involving preterm infants diagnosed with treatment requiring ROP, treated initially with bevacizumab monotherapy who subsequently received deferred laser treatment during the study period from April 2019 to March 2021. Deferred laser treatment was done when recurrence of ROP or plus disease was noted or nonprogression of retinal vasculature was noted on two consecutive examinations over 2 weeks. The main outcomes measured were the ability of the treatment to prevent ROP progression or recurrence and anatomic outcome at the last follow-up visit.
resultsTwenty-three eyes of 14 neonates were treated with a deferred laser treatment following the initial intravitreal injection of Bevacizumab. The mean postmenstrual age at which IVB was given was 34
conclusionsIn our small number of subjects, blinding complications of ROP were prevented by using a deferred laser treatment protocol following initial bevacizumab therapy in treatment requiring ROP. It is better suited in cases where compliance for long-term follow-up after bevacizumab therapy cannot be ensured.
