Outcomes of the intraoperative relaxed muscle positioning technique in strabismus surgery for thyroid eye disease.
Review in Pediatric investigation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Thyroid eye disease (TED) can cause incomitant strabismus with muscle restriction, resulting in diplopia and patient discomfort and discontent. Surgical correction of TED-associated restrictive strabismus has been attempted, with fixed and adjustable suture success rates varying from 38% to 82%. This paper reviews five articles that explored the utility of the intraoperative relaxed muscle positioning (IRMP) technique in patients with restrictive strabismus due to TED. While IRMP is a useful technique for addressing TED-related strabismus and is effective in patients with incomitant strabismus, disease reactivation, staged and unplanned surgeries, combined horizontal and vertical deviations, and previous orbital decompression surgeries, it is probable that this approach can be utilized in children with restrictive types of strabismus. Therefore, further studies are required.
