Isolated Traumatic Bitemporal Hemianopia.

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
Bitemporal hemianopia is a rare presentation following severe head injury, which causes a delay in detection of the visual symptoms. This is a case of traumatic bitemporal hemianopia in a 20-year-old gentleman after an alleged motorbike accident. He was intubated following a severe head injury. The ophthalmologic assessment was performed after he regained consciousness and complained of acute blurring of vision in bilateral eyes. The visual acuity was 2/60 on the right eye and 4/60 on the left eye. Bilateral eyes anterior and posterior segments examination were unremarkable. Confrontation visual field testing discovered bitemporal hemianopia. Plain computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain showed right frontal bone fracture extending to the right orbital roof, superomedial wall of the right orbit, bilateral lamina papyracea, ethmoidal air cells, roof and bilateral walls of sphenoid sinus. He was treated conservatively by the ophthalmology team. Subsequent follow-ups showed improvement of visual acuity which were 6/6 on the right eye and 6/6 on the left eye. Humphrey visual field test confirmed the persistence of bitemporal hemianopia. His good visual acuity does not correlate with the severity of the field defect. Therefore, surveillance for bitemporal scotoma is necessary for all head injuries with severe midline facial bone fractures.
