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: We aimed to investigate the distribution of ocular residual astigmatism (ORA) and its associations with age, gender, manifest refraction, and other ocular indicators in Chinese patients with myopia. Design: This is a multi-center retrospective cross-sectional study. Method: The study included 7,893 patients with myopia (7,893 eyes) aged 18-40 years from five ophthalmic centers. Anterior segment biometrics of the eyes were collected from the Pentacam. ORA and its summated vector mean were calculated using Alpins vector analysis. Compensation factor (CF) was used to evaluate the relation between ORA and corneal astigmatism. ORA in different age, gender, and refraction groups was compared. The Spearman correlation was adopted to reveal multiple ocular indicators associated with ORA, which were integrated into a multiple linear regression model to predict ORA. Results: Distribution of ORA was slightly positively skewed (Skewness= 2.111, Kurtosis = 19.660, KS Conclusion: ORA is present in Chinese adults with myopia and is affected by multiple ocular factors. Our findings may provide valuable information about ORA distribution in candidates for refractive surgery, helping optimize the outcome of astigmatism correction.
