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
Purpose: To observe the changes in peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and peripapillary vessel densities (VD) in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) after scleral buckling (SB) by OCTA. Methods: A total of 40 patients (40 eyes) with monocular RRD who underwent SB were included in the study, with the operated eyes (40 eyes) as the study group and the contralateral healthy eyes (40 eyes) as the control to analyse the changes in peripapillary RNFL thickness and VD before and after surgery. Data were analysed by paired samples Results: Comparison of the peripapillary RNFL thickness in the 8 areas between the two groups during the 6-month follow-up period: All 8 peripapillary areas of the optic disc were statistically different before surgery, except for the tempo superior and tempo inferior, which were statistically different at each postoperative follow-up point, and the remaining 6 areas in the operated eyes group were progressively closer to those in the healthy eyes group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups. Comparison of peripapillary VD in the 8 areas between the two groups during the 6-month follow-up: Peripapillary VD in the 8 areas in the two groups were all statistically different before surgery, and except for superior tempo, which was statistically different at each postoperative follow-up time point, the remaining seven areas in the operated eyes group became progressively closer to that in the healthy eyes group and there was no significant difference. Conclusion: RRD negatively affects the peripapillary RNFL, but both peripapillary RNFL thickness and VD gradually improved in the operated eyes close to the contralateral eyes after SB.
