Study on maintenance of eyeball morphology by foldable capsular vitreous body in severe ocular trauma.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 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
objectivesTo explore the feasibility and safety of using a foldable capsular vitreous body (FCVB) in managing severe ocular trauma and silicone oil-dependent eyes. METHODOLOGY: This is a retrospective study of 61 ocular trauma patients (61 eyes) who presented to the Department of Eye Emergency, Hebei Eye Hospital from May 1, 2018, to May 31, 2019, including 51 male patients (51 eyes) and 10 female patients (10 eyes) with an average age of 44.98 ± 14.60 years old. The oldest patient was 75 years old, and the youngest was 8 years old. These cases represented 51 eyes with severe eyeball rupture and 10 eyes with severe, complicated ocular trauma, which became silicone oil-dependent after the operation. These patients received FCVB implants, and data regarding their visual acuity, intraocular pressure, changes in eye axis, cornea, retina, and FCVB state were recorded after the operation.
resultsIn all patients, the FCVB was properly positioned and well supported with the retina. All 61 patients cleared a follow-up window of 1-36 months with no reports of important changes in their visual acuity. Among the patients, 91.8% reported normal intraocular pressure, the retinal reattachment rate reached 100%, and the eyeball atrophy control rate reached 100%. There was no report of rupture of the FCVB, allergies to silicone, intraocular infection, intraocular hemorrhage, silicone oil emulsification, or sympathetic ophthalmia.
conclusionsFoldable capsular vitreous bodies (FCVBs) designed to mimic natural vitreous bodies are suitable as long-term ocular implants that can provide sustained support for the retina without the need for any special postoperative postures. Their barrier function may effectively prolong the retention time of the tamponade and prevent various complications caused by direct contact of the eye tissues with the tamponade.
