Vitrectomy and tumor endoresection for the diagnosis and treatment of focal nodular retinal gliosis.
Article in Digital journal of ophthalmology : DJO, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report the case of a 60-year-old woman who presented with metamorphopsia and progressive vision loss in the right eye. Fundus examination revealed an elevated, white-yellow mass in the peripheral inferotemporal retina, with massive retinal exudation, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, and retinal detachment. Pars plana vitrectomy with tumor endoresection was performed, and a complete excisional biopsy of the lesion was obtained by removing the tumor through the anterior chamber. Histopathological analysis of the specimen confirmed a diagnosis of peripheral, focal, nodular retinal gliosis. Postoperatively, visual function improved greatly, with no recurrence of the disease at 12 months' follow-up. Focal nodular retinal gliosis is a rare, non-neoplastic proliferation of retinal glial cells, with a vascular component. In our case, surgical treatment with pars plana vitrectomy facilitated accurate diagnosis and resulted in effective management of the retinal tumor and associated complications.
