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

The chief goal of all eye movements is to maintain the image of an object steady on the retina especially the macula to preserve visual acuity. Gaze palsy refers to lack of the conjugate movements due to a failure of supranuclear control mechanisms. Supranuclear control is maintained by not one, but multiple eye movement systems and gaze mechanisms. Supranuclear gaze palsies can be associated with a myriad of aetiologies- from trauma or metabolic abnormalities to stroke, demyelinating disorders and space occupying lesions like tumours. Culprit lesions may be in frontal motor centres, brainstem gaze centres gaze or interconnecting segments. While the brainstem network for horizontal gaze lies in pons, that for vertical gaze is situated in midbrain. Further, ocular oscillations and nystagmus are abnormal eye movements that disrupt a steady fixation of gaze. It is prudent to be aware of various gaze pathways and their anatomical corelates in order to establish a topographic relationship of clinical findings. A systematic clinical examination may provide deep insights on the patho-physiological mechanisms along with aiding in localizing the lesion accurately. This review deals with systematic clinical approach to various gaze control systems.
