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

Objectives: To evaluate the visual functions and their correlation with the neurological status in children with cerebral visual impairment (CVI). Methods: Case records of children with CVI under 3 years of age at their first visit were reviewed. Children's visual functions were scored between 0 and 15 based on fixation and following skills. The neuromotor assessment was conducted by the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) tool. Results: A total of 233 children with CVI (122 male and 111 female) were identified. The median age was 13 months. The etiologies were hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (27.5%), prematurity (23.6%), structural abnormalities (24%), metabolic diseases and genetic syndromes (14.2%), and neuromotor retardation (10.7%). There was no difference in visual function score (VFS) among the etiological groups and the magnetic resonance imaging finding groups (p=0.162, p=0.205, respectively). The VFS values of children without seizures were significantly higher than those with seizures (p=0.003). There was a weak correlation between the HINE ratio and VFS (p<0.001, r=0.341). Conclusion: The visual functions of children with CVI are usually very poor. The visual functions of these children are related to their neurological and motor retardation levels, seizure states, and the presence of additional ocular problems.
