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

Concussions often involve ocular impairment and symptoms such as convergence insufficiency, accommodative insufficiency, blurred vision, diplopia, eye strain, and pain. Current clinical assessments of ocular function and symptoms rely on subjective symptom reporting and/or involve lengthy administration time. More objective, brief assessments of ocular function following concussion are warranted. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in fixational eye movements (FEMs) and their association with clinical outcomes including recovery time, symptoms, cognitive and vestibular/ocular motor impairment. Thirty-three athletes (13-27 years of age; 54.5% female) within 21 days of a diagnosed concussion participated in the study. A tracking scanning laser ophthalmoscope (TSLO) evaluated FEMs metrics during fixation on a center and corner target. Participants completed symptom (Post-Concussion Symptom Scale [PCSS]), cognitive (Immediate Post-concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing [ImPACT], and Vestibular/Ocular Motor Screening (VOMS) evaluations. All measures were administered at the initial visit and following medical clearance, which was defined as clinical recovery. Changes in FEMs were calculated using paired-samples
