Age- and gender-related characteristics of astigmatism in a myopic population.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Purpose: To explore age- and gender-related differences of refractive and corneal astigmatism in myopic patients looking for refractive surgery. Design: A retrospective cross-sectional study. Materials and methods: The medical files of candidates looking for corneal refractive surgery between 2019 and 2021 were reviewed, demographic and refractive parameters including age, gender, refractive status, and corneal parameters were analyzed. Results: A total of 1,417 eyes of 1,417 patients (453 males and 964 females) were included. Males had thicker cornea than females, while females had steeper cornea than males, there was no gender-related difference in refractive and corneal astigmatism depending on patients' age. There was no difference in refractive astigmatism among different age group from 18 to 50 years, while corneal astigmatism had a shift from with-the rule (WTR) to against-the-rule (ATR) with increasing age. Age, central corneal thickness (CCT), sphere, refractive astigmatism (RA), and corneal curvature (Km) were correlated with corneal astigmatism (CA) (standardized coefficients of are 0.006, Conclusion: Refractive astigmatism is stable until the age of 50 years in myopic patients looking for refractive surgery, while corneal astigmatism showed a shift from WTR to ATR with advancing age. Age, CCT, sphere, refractive astigmatism and corneal curvature (Km) were correlated with corneal astigmatism.
