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

We investigated the effect of retinal traction caused by epiretinal membranes (ERMs) on aniseikonia and retinal microstructures in 81 unilateral ERMs. Retinal traction was quantified by measuring the maximum depth of the retinal fold (MDRF) using en face optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. Measurements included the mean inner nuclear layer (INL), outer plexiform layer (OPL), outer nuclear layer (ONL), central retinal thickness (CRT), and interocular ratios of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area (FAZ ratio). Significant correlations were found between the preoperative MDRF and preoperative aniseikonia (P < 0.001), INL thickness (P < 0.001), CRT (P < 0.001), and FAZ ratio (P = 0.003). Preoperative aniseikonia was significantly correlated with preoperative INL and OPL-ONL thicknesses (P < 0.001 and P = 0.020, respectively) and CRT (P = 0.003). Multiple regression analysis revealed that preoperative aniseikonia was significantly associated with preoperative MDRF, INL, and OPL-ONL thicknesses (P = 0.029, 0.006, and 0.006, respectively). Twenty-nine eyes underwent membrane peeling, resolving all retinal folds 6 months postoperatively. A significant correlation was observed between preoperative MDRF and postoperative aniseikonia (P = 0.011). Our findings suggest that retinal traction by ERM is significantly associated with aniseikonia both pre- and postoperatively, alongside other OCT parameters.
