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
purposeTo investigate long-term strabismus surgical outcomes and visual prognosis in preadolescent ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG).
methodsThe medical records of all patients with preadolescent onset OMG who underwent strabismus surgery were reviewed. Thirteen patients met the study inclusion criteria. The main outcomes, including ocular alignment, number of surgeries, and visual acuity at final visit were evaluated. Outcomes were considered successful if there were ≤10 prism diopters (PD) residual horizontal and ≤4 PD residual vertical deviations at final recorded visit.
resultsAmong 13 patients, diplopia presented in 11 patients (77.8%). Mean age at disease onset was 5.8 ± 2.7 years (range 1 ∼ 11), mean age at surgery was 20.5 ± 11.3 years (range, 2.5 to 36.6 years), and the time from disease onset to first operation was 14.8 ± 9.6 years (range, 1.5 to 29.6 years). The average length of postoperative follow-up was 4.7 ± 6.6 years (range, 0.5 to 18.9 years). Ocular deviation changed more than 15 PD during stable disease in six patients (46.2%). No patients underwent more than two surgeries. Successful results were achieved in nine patients (69.2%) at final recorded visit.
conclusionsIn our series, nine patients (69.2%) with OMG could obtain good binocular alignment at final visit. Therefore, strabismus surgery can be considered in patients with preadolescent onset OMG who have constant angle of deviation despite medical treatment.
