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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesTerson Syndrome (TS) is a rare entity consisting of an intraocular hemorrhage secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) or intracerebral hemorrhage (IH). This study aimed to retrospectively describe the experience of the Ophthalmology Unit of Policlinico Gemelli, Rome, in the management of TS.

methodsTwenty-four eyes of 19 patients (10 males-53%; 9 females-47%; mean age of 44.73 ± 12.49 years) with TS who had pars plana vitrectomy between 2011 and 2024 were included. The primary outcome was the mean change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) 1-3 months after surgery. The secondary outcome was the correlation of post-operative BCVA with the timing of vitrectomy (early vs. late, ≤100 or >100 days).

resultsThe time between diagnosis and surgery ranged from 33 to 284 days (median = 102 days, interquartile range IQR = 74-161). Baseline BCVA ranged from 6 to 50 ETDRS letters with a median of 17 letters (IQR = 15-25) and significantly increased after surgery, with a median value of 80 (IQR = 70-85). The BCVA percentage improvement had a median of 325% (IQR = 300-431%). No differences in post-operative BCVA were found between patients who underwent early or late vitrectomy. One vitrectomy was complicated by an endophthalmitis.

conclusionsAlthough no clear guidelines exist on managing TS, vitrectomy significantly improves BCVA, and a delay in surgical intervention does not necessarily worsen the functional outcome. However, an early vitrectomy could improve the stimuli perception, facilitating the rehabilitation process.
