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

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of irreversible deterioration of vision in older adults. Previous studies have found that exposure to pesticides can lead to a worsening of AMD. In this paper, information on pesticide exposure and AMD from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database was used to divide the data into a training set and a validation set. Firstly, the correlation between the variables in the model is analyzed. The model is then built using nine machine learning algorithms and verified on a validation set. Finally, it is found that the random forest model has high predictive value, and its Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) value is 0.75. Finally, SHapley additive interpretation (SHAP) analysis was used to rank the importance of each variable in the random forest model, and it was found that chlorpyrifos and malathion had quite significant effects on the occurrence and development of AMD.
