Surgical interventions for simple phakic fovea-splitting rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: a comparative study of scleral buckling and pars plana vitrectomy.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aims: To compare the efficiency of scleral buckling (SB) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with or without SB in patients with primary simple phakic fovea-splitting rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Methods: A retrospective case-control study included 101 patients aged <55 years diagnosed with phakic fovea-splitting RRD. The primary outcome was functional success, defined as achieving a postoperative logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution best-corrected visual acuity of 0.3 or better at 6 months post-surgery. Secondary outcomes included primary and final anatomical success and postoperative complications. Results: Fifty-one eyes underwent SB, and 50 eyes underwent PPV. In the SB group, 31 eyes (60.8%) achieved functional success compared with 22 eyes (44.0%) in the PPV group ( Conclusion: SB may offer comparable outcomes to PPV in managing phakic fovea-splitting RRD, and careful surgical technique selection is advised due to postoperative complications.
