Monthly variations and climatic factors on acute primary angle-closure admissions: a 5-year retrospective hospital-based study in Shenzhen, China.

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
aimTo investigate the monthly distribution of acute primary angle-closure (APAC) admissions in a specialized hospital in Shenzhen and its association with climatic factors.
methodsA 5-year retrospective study of APAC inpatients from 2017 to 2021 at Shenzhen Eye Hospital were conducted. The medical records were retrieved and climate information was obtained from the government website. The monthly APAC admissions and evaluated the correlation with climatic factors were compared, including precipitation, air pressure, temperature, sunshine duration, humidity, and evaporation.
resultsThe overall mean age of 997 APAC inpatients was 64.63±9.89y, with females predominating (72.12%) and exhibiting significantly shorter axial lengths than males (22.26±0.89
conclusionElevated relative humidity in May is the primary climatic driver, significantly increasing the risk of APAC attack in males ≤65y. However, these correlations are not significant in female, suggesting the possibility of an associated confounding factor.
