One-Year Comparative Evaluation of Highly Aspherical Lenslets and Horizontally Asymmetric Peripheral Defocus Lenses for Myopia Control in School-Aged Children.

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
purposeThe aim of this study was to compare the one-year efficacy of three spectacle lens designs, highly aspherical lenslets (HALs), horizontally asymmetric peripheral defocus (HAPD) lenses, and standard single vision lenses (SVLs) in slowing myopia progression in school-aged children.
methodsIn this prospective, non-randomized study, 57 children, aged 8-17 years, were grouped based on the type of lenses worn: HAL (
resultsAll groups showed some progression in SER and AL over 12 months. The HAL group demonstrated the smallest median SER change (-0.3 D), compared to HAPD (-0.5 D) and SVL (-0.4 D), though group differences were not statistically significant (
conclusionsAmong the three lens types studied, HAL lenses were the most effective in reducing both refractive and axial myopia progression over 12 months. These findings support their use as a reliable intervention in pediatric myopia control.
