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 report the characteristics and the visual and anatomical outcomes of secondary macular holes (SMHs) diagnosed after rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) repair and their associated factors.
methodsRetrospective, interventional case series. All consecutive patients who were diagnosed with SMH after RRD repair at Beijing Tongren eye center from January 2016 to April 2021 were included. Patients who had their primary RRD repair in other hospitals and were referred to our center after diagnosis of SMH were also included. The minimum follow-up time after RRD repair was 6 months.
results37 SMHs were diagnosed within a series of 5696 RRDs. Including 24 eyes referred from other hospitals after the diagnosis of SMH, 61 eyes were included. The type of primary RRD repair surgery included 22/61 (36%) eyes with scleral buckling procedure (SBP) and 39/61 (64%) eyes with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). 21/61 (34%) eyes had recurrent RD. The median time to SMH diagnosis was 150 days (range, 7 ~ 4380 days). Macular hole (MH) closure was achieved in 77% eyes. Visual acuity (VA) improvement of at least 2 lines of Snellen's visual acuity was observed in 51% eyes. Final MH closure status was associated with preoperative MH diameter (for every 50 μm increment) (P = 0.046, OR = 0.875, 95%CI: 0.767 ~ 0.998). VA improvement was associated with final MH closure status (P = 0.009, OR = 8.742, 95%CI: 1.711 ~ 44.672). Final VA (logMAR) was associated with recurrent RD (P < 0.001, B = 0.663, 95%CI: 0.390 ~ 0.935), preoperative MH diameter (P = 0.001, B = 0.038, 95%CI: 0.017 ~ 0.058), VA at the time of SMH diagnosis (P < 0.001, B = 0.783, 95%CI: 0.557 ~ 1.009) and final MH closure status (P = 0.024, B = -0.345, 95%CI: -0.644 ~ -0.046). For patients without recurrent RD, VA improvement and final VA was associated with final MH closure status (P = 0.016 and P < 0.001, respectively), while for patients with recurrent RD, VA improvement or final VA did not associate with final MH closure status (P > 0.05).
conclusionFor SMH diagnosed after RRD repair, final MH closure status was associated with preoperative MH diameter. Recurrent RD, larger preoperative MH diameter, worse VA at the time of SMH diagnosis and failed MH closure are predictive factors for worse final VA. Visual outcome is associated with final MH closure status in patients without recurrent RD, but not as so in patients with recurrent RD.
