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

objectivesA remarkable increase in the number and proportion of surgical patients with acute acquired concomitant esotropia (AACE) has been noted in our hospital in recent years. We aimed to analyse the clinical characteristics and associated risk factors of this increasing number of strabismus in last 5 years.

methodsMedical information was obtained in 62 AACE patients and 73 orthotropic patients as control group completed questionnaires and examination items from March 2017 to May 2020. Data included age at onset, refractive error, angle of deviation, binocular vision, eye care habits, and optical quality of spectacles.

resultsOf the 62 AACE patients, the mean ± standard deviation age at onset was 25.3 ± 8.5 years, with 47 (75.8%) cases showing myopia, 9 (14.5%) showing emmetropia, and 6 (9.7%) showing hypermetropia. Among the AACE patients, 35 (56.5%) performed >8 h of close work daily and 36 (58.1%) reported late-night use of digital devices. When compared with the control group, the risk factors identified for AACE included long durations of close work (odds ratio [OR], 11.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.53-38.91; P < 0.001) and immoderate late-night use of digital devices (OR, 14.29; 95% CI, 4.10-49.72; P < 0.001).

conclusionOur study demonstrated that young adults accounted for the majority of the growing number of individuals affected by AACE in last 5 years, and excessive close visual activities and immoderate late-night use of digital devices were found to be associated with the onset of AACE.
