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
Objective: To retrospectively identify the factors associated with eye disorders and diseases. Methods: The retrospective study was carried out in Bursa Uludag University Family Health Center in Turkey between 1-30 September 2023. The data of individuals who were registered with the Family Health Center and whose eye disorders and diseases were known were evaluated retrospectively. Eye disorders and diseases, sociodemographic findings, existing diseases, allergies, cancer, genetic disease conditions, and steroid use were obtained. Results: Around 3658 people; 1849 males (50.5%) and 1809 females (49.5%) participated in the study. The mean age of the individuals was 26.98±10.22 years. It was determined that 1594 (43.6%) of the participants had at least one eye disorder and/or disease and 1511 (41.3%) wore glasses and/or contact lenses. In 1594 (43.6%) patients with eye disorders or diseases, 41% had refractive disorders. It was determined that the rate of eye diseases is higher in women, smokers, and obese people, those with a family history of eye diseases, those with allergic and chronic diseases, those with genetic diseases, and those who use steroids (p=0.04). Conclusion: It is noteworthy in terms of eye health that nearly half of the participants have at least one eye disorder and/or disease, and nearly half of them use glasses and/or contact lenses. It is also important that eye disorders and diseases are seen more together with smoking, obesity, allergies, genetic and chronic diseases, and steroid use. We emphasize the holistic approach of family medicine and the importance of cooperation with other clinics in terms of eye health.
