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

Interocular suppression is commonly estimated by the contrast "balance point" between the eyes in individuals with amblyopia, in which the depth of suppression is defined as the increased contrast in the amblyopic eye that is perceptually matched to the fellow eye. However, this method may not be suitable for individuals with strabismus who have normal or even better contrast sensitivity in the non-fixating eye. In this study, I introduced a new approach that can be used for measuring interocular suppression for both amblyopia and strabismus without balancing contrasts between the eyes. The method consists of the following components: •The stimuli have equal contrasts in both eyes.•The percepts of objects seen monocularly and binocularly are compared.•Interocular suppression is defined as the percept of object in the amblyopic eye is suppressed when an object is presented in the fellow eye.
