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

Marcus Gunn jaw winking (MGJW) is an uncommon entity and is associated with congenital ptosis. It is a neurogenic congenital ptosis, which is also called the Marcus Gunn phenomenon, trigeminal-oculomotor synkinesis, or pterygoid-levator synkinesis. Congenital ptosis can be associated with MGJW syndrome, blepharophimosis syndrome, and monocular elevation deficiency (MED). MED is a condition where there is a unilateral congenital abnormality in the elevation of the eye in abduction and adduction. The MGJW phenomenon, congenital ptosis, and double-elevator palsy may be associated with and represent a congenital misdirection syndrome. Together, it can be challenging, and surgery is recommended in severe cases, depending on the degree of ptosis and jaw winking. We hereby want to bring to light one such case of a 14-year-old female with congenital ptosis, MGJW, and double-elevator palsy and want to highlight how both MGJW and double-elevator palsy are both parts of the same disease spectrum and how such cases can be treated.
