Subclinical ocular surface changes in children with newly diagnosed allergy.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: To investigate subclinical changes in the anterior segment of the eye in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed allergic rhinitis or dermatitis compared to healthy controls. Methods: This case-control study included children aged 3-15 years diagnosed with allergic rhinitis, dermatitis, or asthma. The control group consisted of healthy children matched for age and sex without systemic or ocular allergies. The Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire was administered with parental assistance, particularly to younger children. Ocular surface parameters, keratorefractive values, and corneal topographies were evaluated. Results: No significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of refractive status ( Conclusion: Subclinical ocular surface changes, including increased meibomian gland atrophy and reduced tear stability, may occur in children with asymptomatic allergies. While these findings do not currently influence treatment, they highlight the need for longitudinal studies to evaluate the potential progression and inform future screening practices.
