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.

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

Objective: To observe and analyze the occurrence rate, improvement time, and influencing factors of diplopia after intermittent exotropia in children. Methods: A total of 135 children with intermittent exotropia treated in our hospital from February 2019 to April 2021 were recruited. A reasonable surgical plan was exerted according to the preoperative examination of the children, the children were divided into groups according to their age, degree of strabismus, visual acuity, and binocular visual function, and the postoperative diplopia occurrence rate and improvement time of diplopia in different groups were observed and compared. Results: Postoperative diplopia occurred in 74 of 135 children with intermittent exotropia, and the postoperative incidence of diplopia was 54.81%. All diplopia occurred on the first day after the operation. There were 62 cases of contradictory diplopia (83.78%) and 12 cases of fusion of powerless diplopia (16.22%). Except for 1 case of amalgamated powerless diplopia, diplopia was not significantly improved after 6 months, which seriously affected the life of the children after the second operation, and all the others were significantly improved within 90 days. The improvement time of diplopia was 3-90 days, and the average improvement time of diplopia was 13.25 ± 3.16 days. According to their age, the children were divided into the 3-6 years old group ( Conclusions: The age, degree of strabismus, visual acuity, and binocular visual function of children with intermittent exotropia are significant factors affecting the occurrence rate and recovery time of diplopia after the operation. The younger the age, the smaller the degree of strabismus, the better the vision and the second or third grade of visual function, the smaller the occurrence rate of diplopia, and the shorter the recovery time of diplopia. Thus, the above influencing factors have a certain guiding significance in predicting the improvement of postoperative diplopia and the time of diplopia disappearance. The purpose of intermittent exotropia surgery in children is not only to correct eye position and improve appearance but also to establish normal retinal correspondence in order to obtain binocular monocular function. Furthermore, postoperative diplopia in children with concomitant exotropia is very common; therefore, careful examination, comprehensive analysis, and surgical plan should be designed according to the above factors. Stereoscopic vision training as early as possible after the operation is beneficial to the establishment of normal retinal correspondence and the elimination of diplopia.
