Pediatric retinal detachments in eyes with extreme high myopia: Presenting features and final outcomes.
Article in Oman journal of ophthalmology. 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
Extreme high myopia is associated with structural changes to the eye. The elongation of the eye, with associated choroidal thinning and macular atrophy, makes these eyes more susceptible to complex retinal detachments (RD). In this case series, we present the course of four pediatric cases with RD. All children had extreme myopia (-8.0 D to - 16.0 D). They presented with symptoms of squinting or abnormal pupillary reflex. Two had a choroidal detachment at presentation, whereas the other two had macular holes causing RD. All four required multiple surgical procedures, with anatomical success in three cases. Final visual acuity was no perception of light in all four eyes. Pediatric RD in extreme high myopia is challenging. Anatomical success needs multiple surgical procedures, but functional outcome remains dismal.
