Occupational exposures and age-related cataract: A review.
Review in Archives of environmental & occupational health, 2024. 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
Occupational exposures comprise of a broad range of factors in constant and direct contact with the ocular surface. Cataract, a leading cause of visual impairment globally, has been associated with various occupational exposures. This review critically examines existing literature on the relationship between occupational exposures and cataract development. We aim to synthesize findings from studies exploring the impact of occupational factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, ionizing radiation, welding fumes, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, tobacco dust, and other elements on the prevalence and incidence of cataract among exposed populations. In our review, certain exposures, such as UV radiation, demonstrated strong evidence regarding their association with cataract development, while others presented suggestive evidence. Hence, further studies are needed to better understand exposures of greatest concern, which can subsequently inform regulations pertaining to occupational exposures in work environments.
