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

purposeTo provide a new classification system for diplopia and evaluate the etiology and clinical features of diplopia subtypes in south China.

methodsIn this retrospective study, all patients presenting with diplopia over the period from 2012 to 2014 in south China were reviewed. Patients were categorized into 3 groups according to their extraocular muscle (EOM) dysfunction: single EOM (sEOM), multiple EOMs (mEOMs), and a comitant strabismus group. Clinical data evaluated included age, sex, medical history, etiology and duration of diplopia, ocular alignment, and ocular motility.

resultsA total of 303 patients were enrolled. The most common type of EOM dysfunction was sEOM (158 cases, 52.1%), followed by mEOMs (

conclusionsThis new classification system for assessing diplopia as based on EOM dysfunction represents an easy-to-follow approach that can be readily adapted for the clinical use. While microangiopathy and trauma represent common etiologies of diplopia, both orbital diseases and NPC-associated diplopia also warrant special attention when assessing diplopia within patients in south China.
