Clinical findings of acute acquired comitant esotropia in young patients.
Article in Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
purposeThis study aimed to identify the characteristics of acute acquired comitant esotropia (AACE) in young patients from a single institution; and clarify their relationship with the excess use of digital devices. STUDY
designRetrospective, observational.
methodsWe extracted the clinical charts of patients aged between 5 and 35 years who presented at the Hamamatsu University Hospital with AACE symptoms from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2018. The age of onset, angle of deviation, refractive errors, history of near work, including excess smartphone use, and treatment modality were retrieved. Patients were divided into three groups: CHILD (aged 5-12 years), JUNIOR (aged 13-17 years), and ADULT (aged 18-35 years) and statistically analyzed with Kruskal-Wallis test.
resultsForty-one patients were retrieved, with a mean age at onset of 15.8 (5-28) years; eight in the CHILD group, 23 in the JUNIOR group, and 10 in the ADULT group. Refractive errors and age of patients were correlated, but were not significantly different among groups. The mean angle of deviation at distance was 28.0 ± 12.8 prism diopters (PD) and 28.6 ± 17.2 PD at near. The CHILD group showed the largest near-distant dissociation. History of excessive near work was found in all groups.
conclusionAACE was most commonly found in the JUNIOR group, especially those aged 15-16 years. AACE may encompass multiple diseases; using common diagnostic criteria and asking common questions regarding digital device usage is necessary to clarify the influence of digital device usage, and a multicenter prospective study is recommended.
