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

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to measure in vivo local strains in the optic nerve (ON) associated with horizontal duction in humans. Axial and coronal MRI were collected in target-controlled gazes in 24 eyes of 12 normal adults (six males and six females, 59 ± 16 years) during large (~28°) and moderate (~24°) ductions. The ON, globe, and extraocular muscles were manually identified, and the pixels were converted to point-sets that were registered across different imaging planes and eye positions. Shape of the ON was parameterized based on point-sets. Displacements and strains were computed by comparing deformed with initial ON configurations. Displacements were the largest in the most anterior region. However, strains from adduction were uniform along the length of the ON, while those during abduction increased with distance from the globe and were maximal near the orbital apex. For large gaze angles, ON strain during abduction was primarily due to bending near the orbital apex that is less transmitted to the eye, but during adduction the ON undergoes uniform stretching that transmits much greater loading to the posterior eye, implied by greater strain on the ON.
