Intermittent Vertical Diplopia as a Rare Manifestation of a Rare Cerebral Infarct: Artery of Percheron Ischemic Infarct and Sidelights on the Phenotypic Variability of Thalamic Ocular Disorders.
Article in Cureus, 2021. 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
The thalamus is a complex structure with over 40 named nuclei. Ischemic lesions of the thalamus exhibit a panorama of phenomena ranging from facial numbness to ocular and visual field disturbances to hemiplegia, behavioral disorders, and stupor. It is a dense neuronal hub with a bewildering variety of connections and functions. We present an intriguing case of intermittent vertical diplopia due to an artery of Percheron ischemic infarct of the bilateral paramedian thalami. We seize upon this opportunity to simplify the thalamic nuclei sub-divisions and their vascular supply. In this process, we outline the phenotypic variability of thalamic diplopia and ophthalmoplegia and their various underlying mechanisms.
