Impacts of environments on school myopia by spatial analysis techniques in Wuhan.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The prevalence of myopia in China has increased significantly in recent years, and the age of onset has become younger. Previous studies have indicated that various environmental factors can influence the development of school myopia. However, the environmental impacts on school myopia remains to be investigated. Discoveries in this field may contribute to better urban planning. This study involved 7,610 students (aged 6-12 years, 4084 boys and 3526 girls) from six primary schools in Wuhan, China. We evaluated the associations between school myopia and the environment by analyzing the geographical distribution of myopic children. We utilized the spatial statistical analysis model. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) risk coefficient for a 5,000-m radius around target schools was 0.379 (p = 0.008), while the NDVI risk coefficient for a 100-m radius around target schools was 0.241 (p = 0.047). The sports area risk coefficient for a 5,000-m radius around target schools was 0.234 (p = 0.016). We found that the specific buffers of NDVI and sports area around schools were associated with the prevalence of school myopia in schools, which worth further research to guide future initiatives on school myopia from an environmental perspective.
