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

backgroundThe rising global prevalence of visual impairment attributed to population growth and ageing heightens the risk of increased vision problems for many. However, there is a limited understanding of factors influencing intervention implementation, and the degree to which participation is achieved in interventions for eye health promotion by eye care professionals is currently limited.

aimThe purpose of this protocol is to review evidence on barriers and facilitators in eye health promotion, and their effectiveness on interventions employed in eye health promotion. METHODS AND EXPECTED OUTPUTS: The Center for Reviews and Dissemination (CRD) guidance for conducting systematic reviews in healthcare and reporting in accordance with the PRISMA statement will serve as the basis for the implementation of the proposed systematic review. Systematic literature searches will be performed by searching three databases, as well as hand-searching articles eligible for inclusion. The searches will include peer-reviewed articles presenting evidence on eye health promotion intervention from the inception of the Vision 2020 Campaign to the present day. RevMan 5.3 software will be used to gather quantitative data, such as (Effectiveness), meta-analysis of such data will be performed. Two reviewers will conduct a quality appraisal of the included articles using the mixed methods appraisal tool (MMAT) 2018 version. We expect to find relevant studies on health promotion interventions among health professionals at different levels of care. The synthesized evidence will help guide further implementation of research on health promotion interventions for eye health.
