Normative values of accommodation functions in young Saudi adults in the Qassim region.
Article in Saudi journal of ophthalmology : official journal of the Saudi Ophthalmological Society. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
purposeThe purpose is to establish normative values for accommodation functions in young adults in the Qassim Region of Saudi Arabia.
methodsThis prospective cross-sectional study involving 409 healthy male adults with a mean age of 21.44 ± 1.88 years was conducted at Qassim University. The study evaluated several ocular parameters, including visual acuity, refractive errors, amplitude of accommodation (AA) using both the push-up and minus-lens-to-blur methods, accommodative response using the monocular estimation method (MEM), relative accommodation using minus and plus lenses, and accommodative facility using flipper lenses.
resultsThe mean normative values for monocular AA measured by the push-up and minus-lens-to-blur were 15.74 ± 3.71 D, and 10.13 ± 1.81 D, respectively. For binocular AA, the push-up yielded 17.49 ± 3.50 D, while the minus-lens-to-blur showed 10.44 ± 1.77 D. The
conclusionThe current study provides information on the norms of accommodative function ranges for young adults in Saudi Arabia, a demographic that has not been previously studied. This data can serve as baseline normative values for diagnosing accommodation anomalies in young adults in this region. These findings will guide clinicians and researchers in understanding the expected accommodative function of Saudi young adults.
