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

Sudden onset diplopia may occur secondary to something as simple as uncorrected refractive error or as complicated as brainstem disorders in conjunction with other symptoms. Therefore, all complaints of diplopia must be a cause for concern. Ophthalmologists have to determine if diplopia is the first sign of a systemic or neurological disorder, which needs to be referred to a specialist or can be managed by the practitioner. In this paper the importance of the case history, primary diagnostic options, the indications for supplementary testing with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as well as treatment options when a patient complains of sudden onset diplopia are discussed.
