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

Purpose: To evaluate retinal layer thickness (RLT) after retinal detachment (RD) using high-resolution (HighRes) optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods: This prospective, cross-sectional, observational study included 44 (out of 53; 14 [31.8%] female; mean age = 62 ± 10 years) patients with successfully treated macula-off RD. HighRes OCT and Spectralis OCT volume scans (97 scans; both Heidelberg Engineering GmbH, Heidelberg, Germany) were generated for study eyes (SEs) and healthy fellow eyes (FEs), followed by semiautomatic layer segmentation analysis. Results: The thicknesses of the ganglion cell layer and inner plexiform layer (GCL-IPL) and inner nuclear layer (INL) were higher in SEs than in FEs (GCL-IPL: 64.4 ± 5.4 µm vs. 61.2 ± 5.2 µm, P < 0.001; INL: 35.1 ± 2.9 µm vs. 32.9 ± 2.7 µm, P < 0.001). HighRes OCT revealed thinner GCL-IPL and ellipsoid zone (EZ) (GCL-IPL: 64.2 ± 5.5 µm vs. 65.2 ± 5.7 µm, P < 0.001; EZ: 8.9 ± 1.4 µm vs. 13.7 ± 1.0 µm, P < 0.001) and thicker INL, outer plexiform layer to myoid zone (OPL-MZ), and combined outer segments of photoreceptors to interdigitation zone (PROS-IZ) than Spectralis OCT (INL: 35.2 ± 3.2 µm vs. 33.9 ± 2.8 µm, P < 0.001; OPL-MZ: 102.7 ± 8.1 µm vs. 99.8 ± 7.6 µm, P < 0.001; PROS-IZ: 19.4 ± 4.9 µm vs. 8.4 ± 2.1 µm, P < 0.001). HighRes OCT revealed two distinct hyperreflective bands between the retinal pigment epithelium and EZ in all SEs, which were not visible in Spectralis OCT. Conclusions: GCL-IPL and INL were thicker in SEs, with RLT differing between imaging devices. Compared with Spectralis OCT, HighRes OCT provides enhanced images of outer retinal layers, which are most relevant for visual outcome in patients with macula-off RD. Translational Relevance: HighRes OCT may improve the diagnostic accuracy, potentially enhancing clinical management of RD.
