Spontaneous Separation of Epiretinal Membrane following Acute Posterior Vitreous Detachment Captured on OCT: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. 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
Introduction: This report describes a case of spontaneous epiretinal membrane (ERM) separation following an acute symptomatic posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) that was captured on imaging. Case Presentation: A 55-year-old female with a history of an ERM and chronic metamorphopsias in the right eye presented with 2 days of new flashes and floaters. Dilated fundus examination revealed an ERM unchanged from prior and a new Weiss ring. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrated a new detachment of the posterior hyaloid from the retina with a focal break in the ERM and an area of attachment between the posterior hyaloid and ERM. Six weeks later, OCT revealed complete ERM separation from the retina with restoration of foveal contour. Conclusion: This case contributes to the existing literature on spontaneous ERM separation via PVD with the mechanism of separation uniquely demonstrated on OCT. Observation may be a reasonable approach for patients with mildly symptomatic ERM who have an attached posterior hyaloid on initial imaging.
