Study 3: Anterior segment optical coherence tomography-guided surgical approach in slipped medial rectus muscle.

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.
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
Purpose: To discuss the novel swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (SS-ASOCT)-guided surgical approach in slipped medial rectus muscles. Methods: Prospectively (between February 2020 and July 2022), six patients with a clinical suspicion of slipped medial rectus muscle were recruited. After complete ophthalmic and orthoptic evaluation, the missing medial rectus muscle is screened using Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (ASOCT). In presence of a traceable muscle, its morphology, depth, and distance from a fixed anatomical landmarks were noted; in its absence, the status of other recti was noted. Intraoperatively, the features were confirmed and the intended intervention was performed. Results: The mean age of six patients was 25.66 ± 9.72 years, two with surgical trauma and four with penetrating trauma (66.66%). In five patients, the ASOCT traced the slipped medial rectus muscle successfully (83.33%); intraoperatively, the same was confirmed (within 1-2 millimeters) with favorable outcomes. ASOCT made a significant contribution in all subjects by reducing the number of interventions and muscle surgeries. Conclusions: In eyes with slipped medial rectus muscle, especially those which are within a finite distance from the angle can be traced using ASOCT. This approach impacts the outcomes in many ways.
