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

Aim: A free-floating vitreous cyst is a rare eye disease. This study aimed to find diagnostic imaging methods and imaging features for vitreous cysts. Methods: This article presents a case report along with a literature review of published cases of vitreous cysts. The case report describes a highly myopic 60-year-old woman with a pigmented, free-floating vitreous cyst in her right eye. A search of the PubMed database using the keywords "vitreous cyst" was performed to identify other cases reported in the literature and to summarize the imaging methods used to diagnose and visualize vitreous cysts and the imaging features of vitreous cysts. Results: A thorough ophthalmic examination was performed in the present case, including slit-lamp photography, B-scan ultrasound, broad line fundus imaging, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), and ultra-wide field SS-OCT. The literature review revealed the imaging methods used in previously reported cases of vitreous cysts in which ultra-wide field SS-OCT has the advantages of wide scanning depth and high imaging clarity. Conclusion: SS-OCT has an advantage over SD-OCT in providing intuitive morphological characteristic images for the diagnosis of posterior vitreous cysts. The comprehensive assessment of multimodal imaging examinations, including SS-OCT, is of significant value for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of vitreous cysts.
