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
Amblyopia is a visual deficit that occurs during childhood and results in an abnormal development of the normal cortical visual pathway. It is defined as the reduction of best corrected visual acuity of one or rarely both eyes, which is not explained by structural abnormalities of the eye alone. During the sensitive period amblyopia is completely or partially reversible. The main causes of amblyopia are strabismus and refractive errors. Congenital cataracts are less common but if present may cause pronounced amblyopia. In Germany the prevalence of Amblyopia is approximately 5%, which is relatively high in relation to other countries, even though data are not completely comparable. As amblyopia can only be successfully treated during the first years of life, early detection of amblyogenic factors is important. Screening tests help in identifying children at risk of amblyopia, while only a thorough ophthalmological examination including cycloplegic refraction reliably detects all risk factors of amblyopia. Treatment consists of removal of the amblyogenic factors and stimulation of the amblyopic eye.
