Closing in on a Consensus in Identifying, Assessing and Diagnosing Children With Cerebral Visual Impairment.
Review in Acta paediatrica (Oslo, Norway : 1992), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimLack of global consensus regarding CVI makes assessment and research more difficult. Our aim is to describe current consensus and evident methods for how to identify, assess and diagnose CVI in children.
methodData-based search on reviews and papers published 2014-2023.
resultThe seven reviews and 23 papers reviewed here jointly convey a broad knowledge on CVI including its definition, assessment tools, and evidence-based methods to diagnose this condition. The definition of CVI as a verifiable visual dysfunction that cannot be attributed to disorders of the anterior visual pathways, or any potentially co-occurring ocular impairment was confirmed. Assessment tools based on Dutton's CVI questionnaire were identified as being most relevant. A diagnosis of CVI should be assessed and established by a multidisciplinary team, following a cognitive assessment. A magnetic resonance imaging scan in addition to the ophthalmological examination can be valuable but is optional and is not on its own sufficient for diagnosis. The neuropsychological assessment must further include tests of visual and visuospatial perception. All assessments should be in co-operation with caregivers and teachers.
conclusionThis scoping review demonstrates satisfactory evidence and consensus needed in order to proceed with general recommendations for assessment and diagnosis of CVI.
