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
purposeTo report two cases of acquired bilateral trochlea nerve palsy with large torsional deviation successfully treated by simultaneous bilateral inferior rectus muscle (IR) nasal transposition and inferior oblique muscle (IO) myectomy. OBSERVATIONS: Case 1 was of a 54-year-old man with torsional diplopia after a traffic accident. He showed 32° and 38° excyclotorsion in the primary and downward gazes, respectively. Case 2 was of a 56-year-old woman with torsional diplopia after a brain tumor operation. She showed 25° and 33° excyclotorsion in the primary and downward gazes, respectively. We simultaneously performed bilateral IR nasal transposition and IO myectomy in these two cases. Postoperatively, case 1 presented with improved excyclotorsion, with 2° and 7° excyclotorsion in the primary and downward gazes, respectively; case 2 similarly presented with improved excyclotorsion, with 4° and 12° excyclotorsion in the primary and downward gazes, respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: Simultaneous bilateral IR nasal transposition and IO myectomy are effective for treating large-angle torsional deviations, especially in downward gaze, requiring only one operation. A new surgical approach is suggested for the successful treatment of large torsional deviations, requiring only one operation.
