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: To investigate the relationship between ocular biomechanical properties in adult myopes and lifestyle habits during school years, aiming to identify behavioral patterns that may influence ocular tissue behavior and refractive development. Methods: This cross-sectional study included adult myopes. Biomechanical parameters were obtained using the Corvis ST Results: The study included 390 myopic eyes, with a mean spherical equivalent (SE) of -5,09±3,8D from 195 individuals with a mean age of 32,72±5,4 years-old. Lower ocular rigidity and a higher myopic spherical equivalent was found in eyes from individuals with personal history of allergies (p=0,00; p=0,03), family history of myopia (p=0,00; p=0,00), predominance of indoor extracurricular activities during school years (p=0,07; p=0,03) and exposure to touchscreen devices under 15 years-old (p=0,00; p=0,05). Eyes submitted to rubbing habits (p=0,05) or from individuals with higher academic degree (p=0,01) showed higher spherical equivalent. Eyes from individuals with predominantly ventral sleeping habits showed lower CBI (p=0,06) and TBI (p=0,01). A multivariable regression found a later age of digital device initiation (β = 0.0446, p = 0.014) to be predictor of higher Stress Strain Index and family history of myopia exhibited negative association (β = -0.044, p = 0.014). Conclusion: This study highlights the potential pivotal role of ocular tissue and its biomechanical behavior in translating demographic factors and lifestyle habits during the period of ocular growth into the refractive status later in adulthood. These findings pave the way for the use of ocular biomechanical analysis as one of the predictors of myopia in the future.
