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

objectiveTo investigate the prevalence of asthenopia and dry eye, and to further explore the potential occupational hazard factors, so as to provide a theoretical basis for their prevention and control.

methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted on the selected respondents. For visual display terminal (VDT) workers in employing organizations such as banks, colleges, and government departments, an online questionnaire independently developed by the research group was used for population surveys. Information including general information, work-related situations, work environment, visual health, and ergonomic factors was collected. The respondents were analyzed according to whether they suffered from asthenopia and dry eye. Relevant factors of asthenopia and dry eye were screened through

resultsThe overall prevalence of asthenopia was 52.5% (235/448) and dry eye was 36.8% (165/448). There were no significant diffe-rences in the prevalence of asthenopia and dry eye among different genders, age groups, and groups of length of service in VDT work. However, the highest prevalence of dry eye was observed in underweight individuals (42.9%), followed by normal weight (40.6%), overweight (28.0%), and obese indivi-duals (17.4%). There was a significant difference in the prevalence of dry eye among different body mass index (BMI) groups (

conclusionThe prevalence of asthenopia and dry eye among VDT workers is relatively high, and it is associated with multiple risk factors. During prevention and control, attention should be paid to taking reasonable breaks during work, controlling glare, and strengthening visual health training and promotion.
