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

Reliably measuring eye movements and determining where the observer looks are fundamental needs in vision science. A classical approach to achieve high-resolution oculomotor measurements is the so-called dual Purkinje image (DPI) method, a technique that relies on the relative motion of the reflections generated by two distinct surfaces in the eye, the cornea and the back of the lens. This technique has been traditionally implemented in fragile and difficult to operate analog devices, which have remained exclusive use of specialized oculomotor laboratories. Here we describe progress on the development of a digital DPI, a system that builds on recent advances in digital imaging to enable fast, highly precise eye-tracking without the complications of previous analog devices. This system integrates an optical setup with no moving components with a digital imaging module and dedicated software on a fast processing unit. Data from both artificial and human eyes demonstrate subarcminute resolution at 1 kHz. Furthermore, when coupled with previously developed gaze-contingent calibration methods, this system enables localization of the line of sight within a few arcminutes.
