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

A brain stem/cerebellar neural integrator enables stable eccentric gaze. Cerebellar loss-of-function can cause an inability to maintain gaze eccentrically (gaze-evoked nystagmus). Moreover, after returning gaze to straight ahead, the eyes may drift toward the prior eye position (rebound nystagmus). Typically, gaze-evoked nystagmus decays during continuously held eccentric gaze. We hypothesized this adaptive behavior to be prerequisite for rebound nystagmus and thus predicted a correlation between the velocity decay of gaze-evoked nystagmus and the initial velocity of rebound nystagmus. Using video-oculography, eye position was measured in 11 patients with cerebellar degeneration at nine horizontal gaze angles (15° nasal to 25° temporal) before (baseline), during, and after attempted eccentric gaze at ± 30° for 20 s. We determined the decrease of slow-phase velocity at eccentric gaze and the slow-phase velocity of the subsequent rebound nystagmus relative to the baseline. During sustained eccentric gaze, eye drift velocity of gaze-evoked nystagmus decreased by 2.40 ± 1.47°/s. Thereafter, a uniform change of initial eye drift velocity relative to the baseline (2.40 ± 1.35°/s) occurred at all gaze eccentricities. The velocity decrease during eccentric gaze and the subsequent uniform change of eye drift were highly correlated (R
