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

aimTo observe the clinical features and the surgical outcomes of the high myopic (HM) patients with epiretinal membranes (ERM).

methodsThis was a retrospective study enrolled HM patients diagnosed with ERM who underwent vitrectomy between May 2012 and November 2021. Three groups were divided according to axial length (AXL): 26-<28 mm (

resultsTotally 76 consecutive eyes of 73 HM patients (27 males), with a mean age of 60.5±9.2y (range: 38-84y) were enrolled. The initial best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of the three groups was not significantly different (

conclusionAXL is not significantly associated with visual recovery. Early operative intervention might have better visual and anatomical outcomes in HM-ERM patients.
