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
Purpose: Evidence on the link between parental smoking and allergic conjunctivitis (AC) is limited, particularly in Chinese children. This study aimed to examine the association between parental smoking and the risk of AC in children. Patients and Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted in the ophthalmology department at Tianjin Children's Hospital from 2021 to 2022. We used logistic regression to explore the association between parental smoking and AC. The stability of the results was ensured using subgroup analysis and propensity score matching (PSM). Results: A total of 4249 participants met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. After adjusting for all covariates, parental smoking was significantly associated with AC. The adjusted odds ratio was 1.17 (1.03-1.34). Significant interactions were observed for mode of delivery and multiple pregnancies, in relation to the prediction of AC (P < 0.05). Further exploratory subgroup analyses in children with myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism revealed no significant interactions (all P values for interaction were > 0.05). After adjusting for potential confounders using PSM, the results remained stable. Conclusion: This cross-sectional study showed that influence of inappropriate parental smoking on the risk of incident AC. Parental smoking was associated with increased risk of AC in children. Reducing parental smoking may help lower this risk. These findings underscore the importance of public health interventions to reduce children's exposure to secondhand smoke.
