Protocol for Shenzhen-working-age cohort study (SZ-working age): a prospective observational cohort study on eye health and myopia.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe widespread use of digital devices in modern workplaces has led to a rise in visual health problems, such as myopia and dry eye syndrome, among the working-age population. This study aims to investigate the incidence of eye disorders, associated risk factors and relevant biomarkers in Shenzhen, addressing a crucial gap in the research on visual health in rapidly urbanising Chinese cities.
methodsThis prospective observational cohort study, conducted from September 2024 to December 2029, will recruit 3000 full-time employees aged 18-65 in Shenzhen through multistage sampling across five job sectors. Data collection will include questionnaire surveys, standardised scale assessments, ophthalmic examinations, ophthalmic imaging and biomarker testing. Annual follow-ups will track the incidence of high myopia and dry eye, as well as associated factors and biomarker changes. Data accuracy will be ensured through double entry and continuous quality control. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The study has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Shenzhen Eye Hospital (2024KYPJ012; 04 February 2024). The results will be presented at professional conferences and submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: National Health Information Platform (MR-44-24-026548).
