Factors affecting anatomical and visual outcomes in Terson syndrome managed by surgery or observation.

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 investigate visual outcomes and prognostic factors of patients with Terson syndrome (TS) managed with observation or pars plana vitrectomy (PPV).
methodsretrospective review of medical records of 117 eyes from 81 patients (43 females) with TS. Main outcome measures were final best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraoperative findings and long-term sequelae.
results46 (39.3%) eyes were managed conservatively and 71 (60.7%) eyes underwent PPV. Median follow-up was 8.4 months. The PPV group had significantly worse (p < 0.001) baseline BCVA (median 2.3 versus 0.7 logMAR, Snellen equivalent 20/4000 versus 20/100). Final BCVA did not differ between the two groups (p = 0.38). Final BCVA ≥ 0.3 logMAR (20/40) in the surgery group was associated with post-operative retinal detachment (p = 0.013) and macular abnormalities (p = 0.014), and in the observation group with ocular comorbidity (p = 0.008). Retinal breaks were detected intraoperatively in 25 (35.2%) eyes and were associated with an interval longer than 3 months between ocular diagnosis and surgery (p = 0.04), but not with larger gauge instrumentation and posterior vitreous detachment. Incidence of ERM did not differ among patients managed conservatively and after PPV (p = 0.9) and between eyes undergoing early or delayed surgery (p = 0.09). The most common post-operative complications were cataract in 16 (22.5%) eyes and ERM in 8 (11.3%) eyes.
conclusionsvisual outcomes in TS are similar with both management strategies. Surgery allows faster and greater visual recovery but carries high risk of intraoperative retinal tears if delayed for longer than 3 months from initial presentation. ERM and retinal detachment are not correlated with timing of surgery or management strategy.
