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
A potential Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) treatment involves Retinal Vein Cannulation (RVC), which requires the surgeon to insert a microneedle into the affected retinal vein and administer a clot-dissolving drug. This procedure presents significant challenges due to human physiological limitations, such as hand tremors, prolonged tool-holding periods, and constraints in depth perception using a microscope. This study proposes a robot-assisted workflow for RVC to overcome these limitations. The test robot is operated through a keyboard. An intraoperative Optical Coherence Tomography (iOCT) system is used to verify successful venous puncture before infusion. The workflow is validated using 12 ex vivo porcine eyes. These early results demonstrate a successful rate of 10 out of 12 cannulations (83.33%), affirming the feasibility of the proposed workflow.
