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

backgroundInvestigation of the prevalence of climatic droplet keratopathy (CDK) in Tacheng, Xinjiang, China.

methodsA total of 1030 participants, in their 40s or older, from the Kazakh ethnic group in Tacheng, were randomly sampled by stratification method. Ophthalmic examinations and surveys were carried out on these participants. Factors associated with CDK were analyzed with logistic regression models.

resultsCDK was found in 66 (6.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.9-7.9%) Kazakh individuals. After multiple regression model analysis, it demonstrated that age (< 0.001), exposure time (< 0.001), exposure protection (< 0.001), and vegetable intake (< 0.001) were of correlation with CDK, of which age (OR = 1.21[CI]: 1.16-1.27) and long-term outdoor exposure (OR = 2.42[CI]: 1.26-4.67) were the risk factors, and that vegetable intake (OR = 0.29[CI]: 0.14-0.59) and wearing a hat (OR = 0.24[CI]: 0.10-0.56) were protective factors.

conclusionsThis study has revealed the risk and protective factors of CDK, providing a new insight on related research.
