Correlation of contrast sensitivity at low spatial frequencies with myopic shift in Chinese children.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeTo investigate the correlation of contrast sensitivity function (CSF) with myopic shift in Chinese children.
methodsThis prospective case-series study included 62 eyes (31 children) who visited the Eye and ENT Hospital of Fudan University in January 2022 and were followed up for 6 months. Routine ophthalmic examinations and quantitative CSF (qCSF) tests without refractive correction were performed. Differences in CSF parameters, including the area under the log CSF (AULCSF), CSF acuity, and contrast sensitivity (CS) at 1.0-18.0 cpd, were compared between two groups stratified according to the myopic shift based on mydriatic spherical equivalent (<-0.50 D or ≥-0.50 D) during follow-up.
resultsThe myopia progressed by 0.13 ± 0.24 and 1.18 ± 0.75 D in the stabilized (28 eyes) and advanced (34 eyes) groups, respectively. Compared with the advanced group, the stabilized group showed significantly lower baseline qCSF test results for CSF acuity and CS at 1.0 and 1.5 cpd. The qCSF readings for CSF acuity and CS at 1.0, 1.5, and 3.0 cpd increased significantly during the 6-month follow-up in the stabilized group, while these values showed non-significant decreases in the advanced group. CS at 3.0 cpd was significantly correlated with myopic shift. Compared with the advanced group, participants in the stabilized group with higher myopia showed relatively significantly lower CS (baseline CSF acuity and CS at 1.0, 1.5, and 3.0 cpd).
conclusionsChildren with relatively slower myopic shift showed lower contrast sensitivity at low spatial frequencies, which might be an effective factor in myopia control.
