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

introductionThe outcomes and prognosis of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for high myopia-epiretinal membrane (HM-ERM) patients with retinoschisis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of retinoschisis on the recovery of macular configuration and visual acuity following ERM removal in eyes with HM and to explore the prognostic factors.

methodsA retrospective study of 73 consecutive patients with HM-ERM who underwent PPV with ERM peeling. According to the optical coherence tomography images, eyes were classified into 4 groups: group A without retinoschisis, group B with outer retinoschisis, group C with inner retinoschisis, and group D with both inner and outer retinoschisis.

resultsIn groups A, B, C, and D, there were 17, 21, 22, and 16 eyes, respectively. Retinoschisis of 44 eyes (74.6%) disappeared postoperatively, including 11 eyes in group B, 20 in group C, and 8 in group D. No correlation was found between retinoschisis resolution and baseline factors. The mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) significantly improved at the final follow-up (p < 0.001). The final BCVA was associated with baseline BCVA (p = 0.001), the presence of epiretinal proliferation preoperatively (p = 0.014), and the postoperative integrity of the ellipsoid zone (EZ) (p = 0.001) and interdigitation zone (IZ) (p = 0.008).

conclusionsAfter surgery, the inner retinoschisis usually resolved completely. Retinoschisis was not the main factor influencing final BCVA. Preoperative BCVA and disruption of EZ and IZ were associated with good visual recovery in long-term follow-up.
