Structural and Vascular Findings in Autologous Retinal Transplantation for Macular Hole.
Article in Journal of vitreoretinal diseases, 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
Purpose: To describe the fluorescein angiography (FA) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) findings in autologous retinal transplantation for refractory full-thickness macular hole (FTMH). Methods: A single case was reviewed. Results: A 71-year-old Hispanic man presented with a refractory FTMH for which internal limiting membrane peel and gas tamponade had previously failed. The axial length was 23.17 mm, and the basal diameter measured 1500 µm (corrected to 1448.13 µm). The patient underwent pars plana vitrectomy and autologous retinal transplantation with short-term perfluoro-n-octane heavy liquid, followed by gas tamponade. The patient was followed for 4 years (48 months). Complete anatomic closure of the FTMH was seen on OCT. The preoperative best-corrected Snellen visual acuity was counting fingers, which improved to 20/100 at 13 months postoperatively. FA showed intragraft vascularization, and evidence of reperfusion at the superficial plexus level was seen on OCTA. Conclusions: Autologous retinal transplantation for this large, refractory FTMH provided anatomic closure with vascularization of the graft and improvement in visual acuity.
