Effect of unilateral inferior oblique weakening on fundus torsion in bilateral eyes of children with congenital superior oblique palsy.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimTo study the change of torsion in both eyes after unilateral inferior oblique (IO) weakening on children with congenital superior oblique palsy (SOP).
methodsThis retrospective study enrolled all patients diagnosed with unilateral congenital superior oblique palsy (UCSOP) accompanied by inferior oblique overaction (IOOA). A total of 120 eyes of 60 patients were divided into group 1 (more extorted paretic eye) and group 2 (more extorted nonparetic eye). The degree of fundus torsion was evaluated before and 1mo after the IO weakening procedure. The torsion of the fundus was recorded by measuring the disk-foveal angle (DFA) using fundus photography.
resultsGroup 1 included 26 cases and group 2 included 34 cases, thus the rate of extorsion was insignificantly higher in the nonparetic eye (
conclusionExcyclotorsion in the nonparetic eye has a similar probability in the paretic eye in UCSOP children, and weakening of the ipsilateral IO has a more obvious effect on the decrement of extorsion in the more extorted eye regardless of which eye is paretic.
