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

aimTo compare the changes in excyclotorsion after inferior oblique (IO) recession in patients with primary and secondary inferior oblique overaction (IOOA).

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data obtained from patients with IOOA who underwent graded IO recession. The patients were followed up for at least 3mo after surgery. Fundus photographs were taken pre- and postoperatively, and the sum of the angles of torsion in both eyes was used to analyze changes in excyclotorsion. Patients were divided into two groups: those diagnosed with primary IOOA were enrolled in the 1'IOOA group, and those diagnosed with secondary IOOA caused by superior oblique palsy (SOP) were enrolled in the 2'IOOA group. Excyclotorsion before and after surgery were compared between the two groups.

resultsA total of 78 patients were enrolled in this study: 34 eyes in the 1'IOOA group and 44 eyes in the 2'IOOA group. In the 78 patients, torsional angle significantly decreased from 15.31°±7.40° to 12.11°±6.53° after IO recession (

conclusionExcyclotorsion is significantly larger in secondary IOOA than in primary IOOA, and a significant decrease in the torsional angle occurs after IO recession in both types of IOOA.
