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

Light exposure profoundly affects human physiology, including circadian rhythms and hormonal regulation. Current methods to assess light exposure often ignore anatomical factors that influence how much light reaches the retina. This study introduces a novel simulation pipeline to model visual field (VF) boundaries as a function of head anatomy. Using the parametric ICT Face Model and the Mitsuba 3 rendering engine, we generated diverse 3D head shapes and simulated light interactions to predict VF boundaries. The results reveal significant variability in VF boundaries, influenced by anatomical features such as the nose, cheeks, and eyebrows. This leads to differences in projected solid angles of the VF of up to 18.7%. This study highlights the importance of individual approaches in estimating light exposure.
