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 explore the relationship between air pollution and myopia in Chinese adult population, as well as the mechanism of physical exercise, sedentary behavior and sleep quality in the association between them, so as to provide a basis for formulating comprehensive myopia prevention and control policies.

methodsThe data of 2,717 participants from CGSS 2021 were Analyzed. This database used subjective assessment methods to evaluate the perceived air pollution level, myopia prevalence, frequency of physical exercise, sedentary time And sleep quality. Based on SPSS 21.0 software, independent samples t-test, binary logistic regression analysis, and the three-step method for mediating effect test were applied to conduct data statistics and analysis.

resultsThe average age of the subjects was (52.04 ± 17.64) years old, And the proportion of females was 54.8%. After controlling for relevant variables, there was a significant positive correlation between perceived air pollution and myopia (OR = 1.132, 95%CI = 1.003 ~ 1.278, P < 0.05); there was still a significant positive correlation between sedentary time and myopia (OR = 1.032, 95%CI = 1.005 ~ 1.060, P < 0.05); there was still a significant negative correlation between sleep quality and myopia (OR = 0.798, 95%CI = 0.707 ~ 0.901, P < 0.01); while the correlation between frequency of physical exercise and myopia was not significant (OR = 1.029, 95%CI = 0.967 ~ 1.094, P > 0.05). In addition, sleep quality plays a mediating role in the correlation between perceived air pollution and myopia (P < 0.01), with the mediating effect accounting for 12.06%, while the mediating effects of physical exercise and sedentary behavior are not significant (P > 0.05).

conclusionThere is a significant positive correlation between perceived air pollution and myopia, and sleep quality plays a mediating role in the above correlation.
