Risk factors for the development of idiopathic macular hole: a nationwide population-based cohort study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This nationwide population-based cohort study searched for demographic, comorbid, behavioral, and reproductive risk factors for idiopathic macular hole (MH) development using data provided by the Korean National Health Insurance Service. A total of 4,496,867 individuals aged 50-79 years who participated in the Korean National Health Screening Program in 2013 or 2014 were included. Participants were followed up until December 2018, and incident cases of idiopathic MH were identified. Prospective associations between incident idiopathic MH and various covariates were investigated using multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard models. During an average follow-up period of 4.91 years, 3054 patients were newly diagnosed with idiopathic MHs. Women showed greater risk (hazard ratio of 1.71) and earlier presentation of idiopathic MH than men. Compared to the normal body mass index group, the obese group (≥ 25 kg/m
