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

Purpose: To predict prognosis and aid in the treatment of residual strabismus/ocular misalignment by analyzing the pattern of ocular motility disturbances caused by orbital tumors, and investigating factors associated with the severity of misalignment or motility limitation. Methods: The medical records of 63 patients diagnosed with orbital tumors were retrospectively reviewed. The location, type, and size of the tumor were noted. The limitation of extraocular muscle (EOM) movement was quantitatively scored for upgaze, downgaze, abduction, and adduction by the severity of limitation on a grading scale of 0 to -4. The maximum range of abduction, adduction, supraduction, and infraduction was measured by image analysis based on 9 gaze photographs using the 3D Strabismus Photo Analyzer. Results: Twenty patients (29%) experienced ocular motility limitations in the affected eye. Twelve patients had orbital tumors situated in the extraconal space (60%), while the other 8 patients (40%) had lesions in the intraconal space. The mean size of extraconal tumors was significantly larger than intraconal tumors ( Conclusion: Ocular motility limitations were more common with large extraconal tumors, mostly in the direction of the adjacent EOM. In contrast, ocular motility was limited toward the opposite direction of the nearest EOM with intraconal tumors. Tumor size in the intraconal space was the only significant factor associated with ocular motility impairment.
