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

Sixth nerve palsies present with horizontal diplopia and typically have a neurological or neurovascular aetiology. They can be confirmed by clinically evaluating the velocity of the abducting saccade, which is slowed. Three cases are presented in which the patients had apparent defective abduction of one eye, resulting from not only neurological causes but also orbital causes. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion in patients with defective abduction without diplopia and should include apparent defective abduction without diplopia (ADAD) in the list of potential differential diagnoses, considering not only neurological involvement but also orbital involvement.
