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

Binocular vision function was assessed in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) without retinopathy and compared to a control group to identify potential nonstrabismic binocular vision disorders. This cross-sectional study included 80 participants (40 T1D, 40 controls) without systemic or ocular diseases, visual impairments, medications, or prior ocular surgery. Highly repeatable tests evaluated heterophoria, the accommodative convergence/accommodation (AC/A) ratio, near point of convergence (NPC), fusional vergences, vergence facility, and stereoacuity. Diagnosed dysfunctions included convergence insufficiency, divergence insufficiency, basic exophoria, basic esophoria, fusional vergence dysfunction, convergence excess, and divergence excess. Individuals with T1D showed significantly farther NPC (break: 5.50 vs. 3.80 cm, p = 0.005; recovery: 8.32 vs. 5.69 cm, p < 0.001), lower near positive fusional vergence (break: 20.70 Δ vs. 24.25 Δ; recovery: 11.50 Δ vs. 14.75 Δ, p = 0.02 and 0.01, respectively), reduced vergence facility (5.10 vs. 7.15 cpm, p = 0.003), and a lower AC/A ratio (3.30 vs. 4.00, p = 0.01). More participants with T1D had binocular vision parameters outside the normal range, with a higher prevalence of binocular vision disorders (p = 0.048). These findings highlight the impact of T1D on binocular vision and emphasize the need for optometric evaluations for early detection and management.
