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

purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the surgical management and long-term follow-up of hypotony related to post-vitrectomy peripheral circumferential retinal detachment (PCD).

methodsEyes diagnosed with hypotony secondary to PCD after pars plana vitrectomy were retrospectively reviewed. The patient demographic data, complications, management, and treatment outcomes were collected and analyzed.

resultsFour eyes were included in this study. The median preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/200 and the mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) was 4.5 mmHg. One case had rubeosis iridis. All eyes underwent peripheral retinectomy to remove the detached retina and release ciliary body traction. Complete retinal reattachment was achieved in all eyes. The final BCVA ranged from 20/200 to 20/50 and regression of rubeosis iridis was observed. Mean IOP improved to 12,25 mmHg at 12 months after the retinectomy. The mean follow- up time was 5 years (range 2-7 years).

conclusionAggressive dissection and 360º trimming of the anterior retina is helpful to relieve ciliary body traction and remove ischemic tissue, restoring minimally adequate aqueous production in cases of hypotony related to PCD.

trial registrationThis retrospective study was approved by the Institutional Review Board, under registration number 77599724.7.0000.0068.
