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
Purpose: To report a case of ocular decompression retinopathy that developed during pars plana vitrectomy in the absence of pre-existing ocular hypertension. Case Presentation: An 84-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital following complicated phacoemulsification for cataract surgery involving a posterior capsular rupture. As a result, 25G+ pars plana vitrectomy was performed along with cortical remnant removal, iridodialysis repair, and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. During surgery, ocular deformation occurred, accompanied by iris prolapse and acute hypotony due to abrupt intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuations linked to infusion pressure changes during IOL implantation. Multiple intraretinal hemorrhages, including peripapillary hemorrhages and those over the posterior pole and equator, were observed. Optical coherence tomography performed on the following days confirmed the presence of hemorrhages identified during the intraoperative period at different retinal levels. Conclusion: Ocular decompression retinopathy can occur after various ocular surgeries, especially those associated with intraoperative IOP changes. Intraocular pressure control maneuvers and maintenance of ocular tone are crucial for the success of any surgical procedure.
