A Proposed Method for Estimating Refractive Error in Primary School Children.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background This study aimed to evaluate consecutive measurements of biometric parameters, age, and refraction in a cohort of Turkish primary school-age children and to assess the correlation between biometric changes and refraction. Methodology The study population was seven and 12-year-old children (n = 197). The retrieved data consisted of three consecutive measurements with a one-year interval for each subject. Data from one eye (right) were used. Age, gender, body mass index, spherical equivalent (SE), axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), central corneal thickness (CCT), keratometry (K), and lens thickness (LT) were analyzed. The onset and final data were retrieved from the database in 2013 and 2016, respectively. Statistically, logistic and Cox regression models of all parameters were analyzed, and the significance level was set at 5%. Results The median of the onset and final SE values were -0.00 D (0.00-0.00) and 0.50 D (0.19-1.00), respectively. The onset AL (hazard ratio (HR) = 5.82, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 3.45-9.76, β = 1.76, p < 0.001), K
