1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study aimed to analyze the duration and causes of persistent subretinal fluid (PSF) after scleral buckle (SB) surgery in patients with macula-involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Sixty-one eyes of 61 patients with macula-involving RRD who underwent SB surgery between 2016 and 2022 were reviewed retrospectively. PSF was confirmed on optical coherence tomography. The PSF duration after surgery and the analysis of relevant ocular and systemic factors were conducted according to the PSF duration. The mean duration of PSF was 5.9 ± 4.6 months in all eyes and 8.1 ± 5.0 months in eyes not treated with external subretinal fluid (SRF) drainage, which was significantly longer than 4.5 ± 3.7 months in those subjected to external SRF drainage. The mean best-corrected visual acuity improved significantly 3 months after surgery. There were significant visual improvements in the external SRF drainage group compared to the non-drainage group during all follow-up periods. Longstanding shallow RRD was significantly associated with longer PSF duration after SB surgery. External SRF drainage during SB surgery can effectively reduce SRF, shorten the duration of PSF, and accelerate visual improvement.
