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

Congenital nystagmus is a condition where the eyes of patients oscillate, mostly horizontally, with a frequency of between 2 and 10 Hz. Historically, nystagmus is believed to be caused by a maladaptation of the oculomotor system and is thus considered a disease of the brain stem. However, we have recently shown that congenital nystagmus associated with congenital stationary night blindness is caused by synchronously oscillating retinal ganglion cells. In this perspective article, we discuss how some details of nystagmus can be accounted for by the retinal mechanism we propose.
