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

<p>Introduction: Concentration mix errors of fluorinated gases commonly used in vitreoretinal surgery can lead to catastrophic elevations in intraocular pressure (IOP). The timing and optimal management of this complication is poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of controlled venting on IOP elevation following simulated gas mix errors.

methodsA validated mass transfer model of intraocular gas dynamics was used to simulate the properties of "isovolumetric" gas concentrations of 20% SF

resultsAll gas concentration errors produced complete gas fill and rapid IOP elevations. Only double concentration errors generated IOPs potentially manageable with medical therapy (peak 60 mm Hg for 40% SF

conclusionGas concentration mix errors produce rapid and often unsalvageable IOP rises. While limited SF
