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

Orbital myositis is a rare, commonly idiopathic, inflammatory condition that affects one or more extraocular muscles. We present a case of unilateral orbital myositis affecting the lateral rectus muscle presenting with gaze-evoked amaurosis, pain, and diplopia, with restrictive limitation of adduction. With improvement in adduction after initiating treatment, we noted narrowing of the palpebral fissure on attempted adduction, mimicking Duane retraction syndrome (DRS). Reported cases of "pseudo-DRS" are associated with multiple etiologies and are characterized by retraction on attempted abduction rather than adduction, as occurs in true DRS. In this case, pseudo-DRS occurred in the setting of idiopathic orbital inflammatory syndrome (orbital myositis) with a motility pattern more consistent with true DRS.
