Advanced Preoperative Imaging in Macula-Off Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment: Emerging Diagnostic and Prognostic Insights for Clinical Management.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. 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
Retinal detachment (RD) is a potentially sight-threatening condition that requires timely diagnosis and appropriate surgical management. In macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), visual recovery after successful reattachment remains highly variable, highlighting the need for reliable preoperative prognostic markers. This study focuses on the contribution of advanced retinal imaging to the preoperative assessment of macula-off RRD, summarizing current evidence on imaging-derived biomarkers associated with disease severity and postoperative functional outcome. In this narrative review, we analyze studies employing spectral-domain and swept-source optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT and SS-OCT), OCT angiography (OCT-A), and adaptive optics OCT (AO-OCT) to characterize microstructural and microvascular retinal alterations. Emerging approaches, including ultra-widefield OCT (UWF-OCT) and artificial intelligence-based image analysis, are also discussed for their potential role in refining diagnosis, supporting surgical planning, and improving prognostic stratification. While several imaging parameters appear promising, their prognostic value is not yet fully realized. Further prospective studies are required to validate clinically meaningful imaging biomarkers and to integrate advanced imaging into routine preoperative decision-making for macula-off RRD.
