Efficacy of inverted internal limiting membrane flap for treating optic disc pit maculopathy.

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
Optic disc pit maculopathy is a serious complication of congenital optic disc pits, often resulting in significant vision loss due to intraretinal and subretinal fluid accumulation. This case report describes a 35-year-old woman with progressive visual decline in her right eye. Examination revealed optic disc pit maculopathy with marked central foveal thickness (634 μm) and a best-corrected visual acuity of 20/100. The patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy, induction of posterior vitreous detachment, selective internal limiting membrane peeling to create a temporal flap, inversion of the flap over the optic disc pit, and gas tamponade with 25% sulfur hexafluoride. At 8 months postoperatively, there was complete resolution of retinal fluid, reduction in central foveal thickness to 261 μm, and best-corrected visual acuity improved to 20/20. These anatomical and functional gains were maintained at 16 months, highlighting the efficacy and safety of the inverted ILM flap technique in optic disc pit maculopathy management.
