Effects of congenital ptosis on the refractive development of eye and vision in children.
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 9 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 investigate the influence of unilateral congenital ptosis on the development of the eye and vision in children.
methodsIn this prospective observational study, 41 patients with unilateral congenital ptosis were enrolled (age range 3-15y). The blepharoptosis was divided into 3 subgroups according to the margin reflex distance-1 (MRD-1), including mild group (MRD-1≥2 mm), moderate group (0≤MRD-1<2 mm), and severe group (MRD-1<0 mm). The fellow eyes served as controls. All subjects underwent ocular examinations, including axial length, keratometry, and refractive error.
resultsThe incidence of astigmatism (ptotic eyes: 58.5%
conclusionCongenital ptosis may lead to a delayed eyeball development in the aspect of AL/CR. The risk of amblyopia is also increased due to visual deprivation and aggravated anisometropia, particularly in severe ptosis case.
