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

Here, we compared sensory outcomes between patients with successful motor outcomes and recurrent exotropia after intermittent exotropia surgery. We retrospectively analyzed 303 patients who underwent surgery for intermittent exotropia, divided into two groups: successful motor outcome defined as an alignment between 10 prism diopters (PD) exodeviation and 5PD esodeviation at the final follow-up (Group A, n = 177) and residual or recurrent exotropia defined as exodeviation > 10 PD (Group B, n = 126). Preoperative and postoperative (at final visit) sensory outcomes were compared using the Titmus stereotest and distance Worth 4-dot test. Stereoacuity significantly improved postoperatively in both successful motor outcome group (Group A) and residual or recurrent exotropia group (Group B). However, stereoacuity did not differ between groups preoperatively and postoperatively. On the other hand, fusion rates for the Worth 4-dot test were significantly higher in group A than in group B, preoperatively and postoperatively, and significantly increased postoperatively only in group A. Therefore, the distance Worth 4-dot test may be useful for evaluating postoperative prognosis and preoperative sensory status.
