Congenital dysplasia involving both medial and inferior recti: clinical features and surgical outcomes.
Article in International journal of ophthalmology, 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
aimTo investigate the clinical features and surgical outcomes of congenital dysplasia involving both inferior recti (IR) and medial recti (MR) muscles.
methodsA retrospective review was conducted including cases of simultaneous congenital dysplasia of IR and MR that were diagnosed and surgically treated at the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University, China, from July 2009 to November 2019. Ocular motility, ocular alignment at distance (6 m) and near (33 cm) by prism alternating cover test and stereoacuity were assessed in all patients before and after surgery.
resultsA total of five patients (four males and one female; three with right eye and two with left eye congenital dysplasia) were included in this review. The patients ranged in age from 10 to 42y (21±13.4y). The main clinical findings were hypertropia and exotropia of the affected eye, along with motility limitations in adduction and depression. Lateral rectus (LR) recession/transposition combined with IR resection was performed in one case. Two scheduled surgeries were performed in four cases, with one involving superior rectus recession and IR resection and the others LR recession and MR resection. Mean±SD pre-surgical exotropia of 51.0±31.11 prism diopter (PD) and hypertropia of 29.20±7.12 PD in the primary position were decreased to 3.6±12.90 and 3.2±10.09 PD, respectively, at two years after surgery, with a success rate of 60% and an under-correction rate of 40%.
conclusionThe main clinical features associated with simultaneous MR/IR congenital dysplasia are hypertropia and exotropia of the affected eye along with motility limitations in adduction and depression. Scheduled two-stage surgeries achieved a success rate of 60%.
