Nomogram for Predicting Myopia Risk in Chinese Children and Adolescents Aged 5-19 Years - 10 PLADs, China 2020-2024.
Article in China CDC weekly, 2026. 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
Introduction: This study aimed to identify the determinants of myopia in children and adolescents across 10 provincial-level administrative divisions (PLADs) and develop a predictive nomogram to aid risk identification. Methods: From November 2020 to July 2024, 32,075 students aged 5-19 years were selected using stratified cluster random sampling across 10 PLADs. Myopia screening and questionnaires were used to collect demographic, behavioral, and environmental data. To account for the hierarchical structure of the data, multilevel logistic regression was employed to identify the independent predictors of myopia. A nomogram was constructed based on the regression coefficients, following the Transparent Reporting of a multivariable prediction model for Individual Prognosis Or Diagnosis (TRIPOD) guidelines. The model performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, area under the curve (AUC), calibration plots, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: The prevalence of myopia was 29.49% (9,460/32,075). Sex, daily frequency of school eye exercises, homework/reading and writing time after school, time spent on computers, 33-centimeter eye-to-book distance during reading and writing, 3-meter eye-to-TV distance, lying or prone position for reading/screen, parent-controlled game time, and parental myopia were identified as significant predictors. The nomogram demonstrated strong predictive ability, with AUCs of 0.80 (training) and 0.81 (validation), good calibration, and a high net clinical benefit in DCA. Conclusion: The developed nomogram proved effective for identifying high-risk children, supporting personalized risk stratification, and targeting early intervention strategies.
