Paracentral Bitemporal Hemianopsia and Acquired Supranuclear Ocular Motor Paresis Following Cardiac Surgery.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Acquired supranuclear ocular motor paresis (ASOMP) is a rare complication following cardiac surgery, characterized by limited voluntary eye motility. The exact cause and development of ASOMP after cardiac surgery remain unclear. We report a case of ASOMP with paracentral bitemporal hemianopsia with optic atrophy after cardiac surgery, which, to our knowledge, is novel. The patient demonstrated bilateral ophthalmoplegia, with gradual improvement in voluntary smooth pursuit but persistent impairment in saccadic eye movements. Interestingly, the patient showed improved proprioceptive-driven pursuit of their own hand compared to pursuit or saccades following an examiner's hand. The visual field examination revealed a bilateral paracentral temporal hemianopic field defect. The underlying mechanisms of ASOMP and potential chiasmal ischemia in this case remain unknown. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of ASOMP following cardiac surgery, with potential slow improvement over time.
