Tracking myopia development through axial length progression: a retrospective longitudinal study.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundCurrent prediction models for myopia progression remain limited in their ability to provide personalized risk assessments.
objectiveTo examine the predictive role of axial length (AL) progression in progressive myopia.
introductionThis retrospective cohort study analysed longitudinal ocular biometric data collected through repeated measurements in a school-based population. SUBJECTS: The study population comprised a longitudinal cohort of 1697 Chinese students aged 6-14 years, with ocular biometric data collected between December 2017 and May 2019 (18-month follow-up period).
methodThe dataset was randomly partitioned into development and validation cohorts at a 2:1 ratio, with two-thirds of the data allocated for nomogram model construction and the remaining one-third reserved for validation. The axial length-to-corneal radius (AL/CR) ratio was defined as the AL divided by the mean CR value measured in 90° meridians and 180° meridians: AL/CR = 2AL/(CR
resultsThe baseline subjects (
conclusionsThis study develops a personalized prediction model for progressive myopia, grounded on factors of the first visit AL progression and baseline AL/CR. The model offers a dynamic and reliable foundation for selecting effective myopia control measures in future stages.
