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

Myopia is a major global health concern, projected to affect nearly half of the world's population by 2050. While axial elongation is known to be the underlying pathology in myopia, the pathophysiology of factors that drive axial elongation is not fully understood. Factors driving axial elongation include genetic factors and environmental factors such as outdoor activity time and the amount of near work. With advances in ocular imaging technology, there is interest in the role of anterior segment biomarkers in the onset and progression of axial elongation in myopia. Imaging modalities such as corneal tomography, anterior segment optical coherence tomography, optical biometry, and corneal biomechanical analyzers have enabled the precise measurement of corneal shape, anterior chamber depth, lens parameters, and biomechanical properties. These biomarkers have been implicated in myopia development, progression risk prediction, and response to interventions such as orthokeratology. In this review, we explore contemporary anterior segment imaging modalities and seek to better understand the complex relationship between anterior segment biomarkers and axial elongation in myopia. By understanding the role of these biomarkers, we may be better equipped in predicting myopia onset and progression and pave the way for potential treatments in myopia.
