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
purposeTo assess the efficacy of precut disc of lyophilized amniotic membrane (LAM) in the management of recurrent full thickness macular hole (FTMH), already treated with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), internal limiting membrane peeling, and gas tamponade.
methodsTwenty-seven eyes of 27 patients with recurrent FTMH were included in this retrospective study and treated with 25G PPV, LAM graft (Visio Amtrix, TBF, Mions, France) and 20% SF6 gas tamponade. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) was used to assess anatomic FTMH closure 1 month postoperatively. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was measured preoperatively and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery.
resultsTwelve eyes presented large idiopathic FTMHs, 12 showed large FTMH associated with high myopia and the remaining 3 had large FTMH and retinal detachment in highly myopic eyes. Mean minimum FTMH diameter at baseline was 782±341.17 μm and mean BCVA was 1.02±0.63 LogMAR. Postoperatively, anatomical FTMH closure was achieved in 23/27 (85.2%) eyes one month after the surgery. Mean BCVA progressively improved during the follow-up period, reaching 0.55±0.42 LogMAR (p = 0.04) at 12-months follow-up. No adverse events were registered during follow-up.
conclusionsResults suggest that epiretinal graft of LAM precut discs is a safe and effective surgical procedure for large and recurrent FTMH treatment, leading to significant BCVA improvement.
