Analysis of retinal alterations utilizing intraoperative OCT following surgical interventions with novel ILM forceps in the DISCOVER study.

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
This study aimed to assess retinal alterations following membrane peeling procedures using novel ILM Forceps with laser ablated surface with the help of intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT). A post-hoc analysis was performed to evaluate iOCT findings in eyes that underwent membrane peeling procedures with the novel ILM Forceps. Pre-peel and post-peel iOCT videos and images were evaluated for each eye to assess for post-peel anatomic alterations. Surgical video/iOCT scan correlation was conducted to evaluate the etiology of anatomic alterations. Thirty-two eyes were included in the analysis. Three eyes (9%) had focal full thickness retinal elevations identified on iOCT following tissue-instrument interaction with the ILM Forceps. Two eyes (6%) had focal inner retinal elevations and one eye (3%) had a full-thickness retinal elevation that were not related to direct tissue-instrument interaction but rather indirect peeling forces. iOCT-identified architectural alterations related to direct-tissue instrument interaction were relatively infrequent (< 10%) with similar frequency to previously reported alterations with other surgical instruments.
