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
purposeTo examine the developmental patterns of refractive error and optical components in hyperopic children with infantile (onset ≤12 months of age) accommodative or late-onset (18-48 months of age) accommodative esotropia.
methodsThis prospective longitudinal study included children with infantile (n = 34) or late-onset (n = 63) accommodative esotropia. Axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT) and keratometry (K1, K2) were obtained with a Lenstar LS 900. Lenstar measures were recorded <6 months after cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction (SER) was derived. An initial examination was conducted at 5.8 ± 1.5 years of age, with a follow-up duration of 4.8 ± 0.8 years. A linear mixed-effects model was used to estimate the rate of individual development for each ocular component and SER, and to compare the two groups.
resultsAll biometric components changed with age. The rates of change with age for SER and AL were significantly different between the infantile and late-onset groups (SER: -0.18 vs. -0.12D/year, p < 0.001; AL: 0.16 vs. 0.14 mm/year, p < 0.01). The rate of change with age of the AL/CR ratio was significantly different between the infantile and late-onset groups (0.019 vs. 0.016, p < 0.001). No significant differences in the rates of change in ACD, LT, K1 or K2 were identified.
conclusionsMajor ocular biometric components in children continue to mature in both infantile and late-onset accommodative esotropia. Annual change in axial length is smaller in late-onset accommodative esotropia than for infantile accommodative esotropia, consistent with less change in the SER with age.
