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

Introduction: Stereopsis is the ability to perceive depth through binocular vision. Artificial lighting conditions play a significant role in visual performance, yet their specific effects on stereopsis remain poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the effect of different light sources on stereopsis. Methodology: Forty young adults with normal binocular vision and stereoacuity better than 40 arcseconds were included. Participants were exposed to four lighting conditions [light-emitting diode (LED), incandescent, sodium vapour, and compact fluorescent lamp (CFL)] with illumination levels set at 400 lux. Stereoacuity was measured using the Randot stereo test under these lighting conditions, with the order of exposure randomised for each participant. Results: The median stereopsis values for CFL and LED lighting were 25 arcseconds, while those for incandescent and sodium vapour lamps were 30 arcseconds. Stereoacuity was significantly worse under sodium vapour and incandescent lighting compared to CFL and LED conditions ( Conclusion: Sodium vapour and incandescent lighting conditions significantly impair stereopsis, while CFL and LED lighting conditions do not adversely affect stereopsis.
