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

Diplopia after rhinoplasty is a rare complication that requires immediate medical attention. Workup should include a complete history and physical examination, appropriate imaging, and consultation with ophthalmology. Diagnosis may be challenging due to the wide differential ranging from dry eyes to orbital emphysema to an acute stroke. Patient evaluation should be expedient, though thorough to facilitate time-sensitive therapeutic interventions. Here, we present a case of transient binocular diplopia presenting 2 days after closed septorhinoplasty. The visual symptoms were attributed to either intra-orbital emphysema or a decompensated exophoria. This is the second documented case of orbital emphysema after rhinoplasty presenting with diplopia. It is the only case with a delayed presentation as well as the only case that resolved after positional maneuvers.
