Association between hemodialysis and surgical outcomes of pars plana vitrectomy in patients with chronic renal failure and proliferative diabetic retinopathy: a retrospective analysis.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2025. 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
backgroundTo investigate the association between Hemodialysis (HD) and postoperative outcomes in patients diagnosed with chronic renal failure (CRF) who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
methodsThis was a retrospective study. Fifty-three eyes were divided into HD (25 eyes) and non-HD (28 eyes) groups. Follow-up assessments were performed preoperatively and at 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, 8 months and 12 months postoperatively. Independent risk factors affecting visual recovery following PPV were also determined.
resultsThe HD group exhibited significantly lower intraocular pressure (IOP) from 1 week to 2 months postoperatively compared to the non-HD group (P < 0.05). While non-HD patients had better preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), HD patients achieved superior BCVA at 2 months (P < 0.05), with higher rates of visual improvement at 12 months (84.00% vs. 78.57%). Prolonged diabetes duration and elevated total cholesterol levels negatively correlated with postoperative VA prognosis (P < 0.05). The preoperative eye conditions, lens status, postoperative complications were not significantly different (P > 0.05).
conclusionsPreoperative HD is associated with short-term reductions in IOP and improvements in BCVA after PPV, with long-term data correlating HD to better visual acuity outcomes. However, unmeasured confounders may influence these results. Prolonged diabetes duration and elevated total cholesterol levels also appear associated with slower visual recovery, warranting further validation.
