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

objectiveThis study aims to characterize the baseline profile and clinical outcomes of pneumatic retinopexy (PR) in patients fulfilling the Pneumatic Retinopexy versus Vitrectomy for the Management of Primary Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment Outcomes Randomized Trial (PIVOT) eligibility criteria at a tertiary referral center in Colombia.

methodsThis retrospective consecutive case series included patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) meeting PIVOT criteria between January 2021 and April 2024. The primary outcome was single-operation success (SOS) at 3 months, defined as complete retinal reattachment after one PR procedure, allowing for a supplementary gas injection within 21 days.

results563 newly diagnosed primary RRD cases were reported, 143 (25.4%) were PIVOT-eligible and 105 underwent PR. The SOS rate was 85.7% (90/105). Baseline age, sex, lens status, and macular status were comparable between success and failure groups. Detachment extent > 2 quadrants correlated with an increased risk of failure (p = 0.045); however, this association should be interpreted cautiously given the limited number of events.

conclusionsApproximately one-quarter of primary RRD cases at our center met PIVOT criteria. In this cohort, PR yielded a high SOS rate and remains a valuable first-line surgical option in appropriately selected patients, particularly in settings with constrained resources.
